FWIW, here is the wishlist that I'm going to send to Coda for future

others are more longstanding and/or esoteric. If anyone wants to copy and

GENERAL PROGRAMME
Exactly! Finale is a NOTATION program with rudimentary midi
capabilities - it is not a sequencer. When you want minute detail over midi
playback, dump the midi data to a program designed to do that, like
Logic or Performer.
Use the right tool for the right job.
