I can see how the regular use of a persistent 'properties' window makes
sense for some users, who will be routinely modifying all sorts of details.
However, I think what is the unspoken query here is "Why can't I change
the appearance of text as easily as in Word?" In other words, drop-down
boxes. Yes, Word automatically assigns styles according to what you
choose, but 99%+ of users never notice this. (Whether that's a success
of the 'style' implementation or a criticism, I'm not sure.)

Hi David,
No, Sibelius menus cannot be configured; just access to them can be altered
via keystrokes. The properties menu cannot be accessed via the context menu
for a given object. It remains a separate window.
Maybe next upgrade............

First of all, you can right-click directly on an object in Sibelius and
bring up the context menu.
Standard Windows UI is that the context menu include PROPERTIES at
the bottom of it. Are the Sibelius menus configurable?
