When you create your own Smart Line, the text in "left start" is the "molto 
rit", while "a tempo" will go in the "right end" field. This will do what you 
want, unless I am severely misunderstanding.

Why can't you just make a new fermata in 48 point Maestro? It would be exactly 
the same character as the regular fermata, except bigger. It will even have all 
the same attributes as the regular one if you "duplicate" the existing one and 
just make the font size bigger.
