There are two things that I would find useful in how custom playing techniques and expression maps are managed:
-
Make a project self-contained. Every elements needed to play it should be in the project file, instead of partially residing in a general file than may change (and change the project).
-
Allow importing of playing techniques and expression maps from other project. A bit like InDesign allows for importing text styles from other documents.
I would also love a system allowing for instrument presets, self-containing all the playing styles and expression maps, in addition to range and names, of an individual instrument.
