Are there any other patch changes like pizz/arco that human playback
recognizes in the text in an expression?

Most of them are GPO-only -- like harp harmonics, brass mutes, and string mutes. These aren't supported in the GM SoftSynth because those sounds aren't even included in the GM set.

I just tried an oboe/eng hrn
switch and it didn't take care of that one.

No, because that switch needs to be handled differently in GPO vs. SoftSynth. In GPO, you would first have to load an English Horn into an empty Kontakt Player slot, then program a channel change expression (GPO does not recognize patch change expressions).

Wouldn't it be nice, though, if
HP handled ww dbls that way?

It would, but it would require Garritan to create a keyswitched oboe/ english horn combo -- which is actually not a bad idea at all. In the meanwhile it's easy to program your own channel/patch change expressions, as needed.
