Doesn't Finale already have a very usable UI paradigm for this, in 
the staff expression dialog where you choose which parts/score for a 
staff expression to show up in? Seems to me, that's a pretty easy UI, 
and ought to be easily extensible.

And it makes one wonder if the future of text blocks and staff 
expressions might not merge at some point (what *is* the 
justification for keeping them separate?).
