Just Intonation for acoustic instruments

I am interested in hearing about any list members' experiences in
writing in Just Intonation for acoustic instruments, such as orchestral
instruments, natural brass instruments (cf. Koechlin's "Sonneries"
for natural horns), or specially designed instruments other than
Partch-type percussion (such as harmonic flutes, Branca-type zithers,
etc.). What are the capabilities and drawbacks, how well do performers
adjust, how accurate are the results with what prime limits, etc.
