To clarify:
Using the "switch between full score and part" button in Sibelius works
exactly way I would like my proposed "Parts View" and "Score View" to
work in Finale.
On the other hand, directly selecting a part from the dropdown menu in
Sibelius (when "Full Score" is showing) spawns a new window. That's
bad UI -- I don't want Finale to emulate that.

Another thing,
The video in on dynamic parts Sibelius is actually quite misleading.
You see the narrator click on a part name, and instantly, a
split-screen appears. That's not what actually happens when you use
the program. In fact, it's not a split screen at all, it's two
separate windows (which you can see if you look closely at the video
-- those are two Windows XP windows, not a single window with a
split-screen view).
When you select a Dynamic Part in Sibelius, it spawns a completely new
window. My preference would be for Finale to *not* do that. I like
the concept of parts as a separate View in *the same window* -- hence
my idea of Parts View and Score View.
When you use Special Parts Extraction, when you switch from scroll
view (score) to page view (part), it doesn't spawn a new document
window. When Finale implements Dynamic parts, I would like it to
follow that model instead of the Sibelius model.
