Then the graphic which displays to illustrate what it means is wrong.

Yes, they're all Vertical Click Position, and then I would add a set of radio buttons Attach to Top Note | Bottom Note | Staff (which would be greyed out for other positioning options). The fact that it may technically be the top staff line is irrelevant, I think.
If this is WAD, it's a terrible misnomer, since Top Note and Bottom Note positions aren't actually *positions* at all -- they're attachment points. And why should Top Note be an attachment point but Above Entry is a position?
Personally, I would prefer that it work the way it looks like it ought to. Bottom Note position ought to line up the baselines of the expression and the bottom notehead, taking into account the additional entry offset value.
