Aligning Measure-Attached Expressions to Barlines

IWBNI it were possible to specify that a given measure-attached expression should be aligned to the left or right barline of the measure to which it is attached.

This could be implemented by modifying the top section of the Measure-attached Expression Assignment dialog box to contain the following controls:

----------------------
Position

H:
[ ] Distance from Beginning of Measure ___ |Beats,EDUs,EVPUs|
[ ] Aligned to Barline
    Barline: ( ) Left ( ) Right
    Alignment: ( ) Left ( ) Center Horizontally ( ) Right

V: ___
----------------------

Such a feature could be used when positioning expressions that are rehearsal letters or metric modulation equations.
