One other reason to use the Text rather than Expression Tool is that you can't mix fonts in an expression. Still, expressions are so much more flexible than text that when I need something like "Moderato" followed by a metronome marking in parentheses, I overlay two expressions. Hmm, maybe multiple fonts in an expression is a wish list item?
One kludge around the unmixable fonts issue (and this kludge, er, I mean workaround, allows carriage returns in an expression as well) is the following:
Create the expression in the Text Tool, then export it as a graphic.
Erase the text block from the page.
Import the graphic in the Shape Designer, and make it an expression.
Assign it at will wherever you like, attached to whatever you like.
For things like your example, though, I still use your method.
