It's reasonably flexible, just not user friendly compared to the instantaneous gratification of typical Midi implementations. Once I cottoned on to the fact that playback is both subservient to notation and detachable from it, things started to go schwimingly (not as fast as running you understand). However: > ...

Since we can already type in chords and lyrics, why not be able to type in Expressions if that tool is selected and there's a checkmark on a "Type Into Score" menu item? Cursor changes to a pencil, click for the location, type, and press <Enter> when done.
