This small expedient could be adopted. The very simple plugin that I attach allows you to store the 'pitches' of a musical fragment to transfer it to another. Let's imagine you have this melodic line: 001.png
after creating a rhythmic figuration of this type (with notes of equal pitch) 002.png
which is quick and easy to create, and can be saved as a template, you can apply the plugin first by selecting the melodic line and clicking on 'Archive Pitch', then selecting the rhythmic figuration and clicking on 'Restore Pitch'. The result will be this 003.png
Obviously you can create all the rhythmic figurations you want: the only thing to pay attention to is the number of notes, which must be the same for source and destination (otherwise you would see an error message). If there are chords, it will just be a matter of working a little more...

No. What is the use of memorizing the rhythm? Unless I have misunderstood, the OP needs to transform a certain fixed rhythm into another fixed rhythm while maintaining the same melodic line. The examples given by the OP have a single pitch but I think they only have the function of exemplifying what he wants. If this were not the case, you wouldn't even need a plugin to carry out the operation.

The library of stored pitch combinations could be enormous.

I thought that storing rhythms was to allows such patterns to be applied to different measures to achieve the rhythmic changes that the scorer requires, without changes to pitch. Hence a library of rhythm maps seems to fit the requirements, whether the score section has single or multiple pitches.

I don't know what you mean. After all, if the OP judges the plugin I provided unsuitable (because it is insufficient, because I misunderstood, because... who knows) for me there will be no problem. A more serious plugin would require a much greater effort, which I have no intention of doing: I point out that I have talked about a 'expedient' that perhaps could save some time, that's all...

It would be interesting to know why such a toggle would be useful to fionacar.

It's a shame that writing plugins is so techy. It would be nice if it worked more like Mictosoft's Power Automate so that it was easier for many more users to add their own plugins.
