I mean... sure, just look how Sibelius reacts to such situation...:
There let's say... you've  selected the entire chord with partial ties,
hitting the tie command adds the remaining ties making a tieing complete...
hitting it the second time removes ALL the ties from the given chord.   On a
single note that would merely be a toggle. Very practical. 


Another issue with the ties added outside the note input mode, is that when
no adjacent note coming up, they may get extended up to the few pages
ahead!!! The image below shows what happened when I exported xml of one of
my pieces to MuS.

I would rather restrict MuS from making a tie longer then up to the next
note at all. As was said before those extended ties are not useful anyway.
