This is not at all urgent but I though I'd just throw it out there.
It would be cool to be able to drag/copy chords from the stringed instrument window into a figure. This would be very useful for quickly mocking up realistic chords for a particular instrument.
For instance a basic open E chord on guitar would be EBEG#BE in ascending order.
This would be especially useful for prototyping parts for unusual tunings or creating parts that sound as if they were composed on an instrument with a peculiar tuning.

Add to this a "Strum" parameter (maybe with a humanizer or variation with random seed so the strum isn't too mechanical) and this could be really cool.
Edit: Had some other idea for fingerpicking but it wouldn't be too useful. You'd want to pick some stuff at the same time, not always in a sequence.

That would be a nice feaure to see tucked into the segment properties (at the bottom, by Full Chord Reset Normal etc) So it could be used in any context.
A stochastic rake of penguin samples!
Perhaps a parameter could control the random properties (jitter speed direction) so strumming parameters could be controlled by values in different containers
