For what it's worth, I might as well give my opinion on this. I think it actually isn't that bad of an idea. Some of the kokugos already do this, and I've seen it quite often so far. I think it is a nice bit of additional information on a term. When looking up the just now submitted 山栗 (https://www.edrdg.org/jmwsgi/entr.py?svc=jmdict&sid=&e=2322907), daij and koj also give 《季・秋》apart from the gloss itself. I don't know much about the 24 Solar Terms, but just from looking at it, I could image this could get a bit messy. The implications in terms of effort when it comes to implementing either of the two seasonal specifiers, are of course not known to me.
The following suggestion came in via jisho.org. I said I doubted it would get much support, but it should be exposed as an issue, at least for a while.
