Is there a way to add textual chord notation in Rosegarden? I am
especially interested in "functional" notation with Roman numerals.
Yes!
You can add various types of 'text' to notes in the notation editor.
This is done via the button with a 'T' - See this screenshot:
https://ctrl.vi/i/66wZ6qE7T
This is also activated via menus: Tools > Text or via a keyboard
shortcut (F8 by default).
In your scenario you can just select Chord (which in turn selects a
certain font and style, i.e. small bold roman font) and enter the Roman
numeral. A useful feature is that this text can be copy pasted.
This screenshot shows an example of a simple end result with notation:

Text entry is documented here in more detail:

There is also a specific guitar chord entry mode which is documented
here: https://www.rosegardenmusic.com/doc/en/nv-guitarchords.html
Hope this helps,
Lorenzo
