If you aren't happy with the alignment because you have the baseline too close to the staff and your note-attached expressions aren't really aligned, you can drag the left-most triangle down and all your expressions will at some point jump into perfect alignment.
Measure-attached expressions will always be placed in perfect alignment, it seems from my preliminary tests, and their placement can be moved with more than one triangle. I'm still not sure what all four triangles are four, since I can only see real results with the left-most three.
The difference between the expression behavior and the lyric tool behavior is that the expressions all come with a predefined offset so that when note-attached they will not collide with the entry. So dragging too close will result in non-aligned expressions. With the lyric tool, when you move the baseline, all lyrics remain aligned and move up and down as you move the baseline and it is up to YOU to prevent collisions with entries. To achieve the same thing with expressions you have to edit each expression in the list and set the offset to zero.

In Finale 2004 is there a way to specify the exact locations of the expression baselines in relation to the staff as you can in Lyrics Tool (adjust baselines)? Or do you have to do it by eye alone?
