It would be very helpful to be able to add text to the arpeggio bracket.

As I have mentioned before these are used to indicate keyboard changes in organ and harpsichord music.

The ability to add text to it would be very helpful as it would mean the element could be copied in one operation instead of 2.

This is an example of it's use in a piece by Buxtehude

This particular piece has manual changes every few bars, so this would have been very welcome when transcribing it.

Does other software do this?

The arpeggio bracket has been used for text, but as I think you've said, it is an improper use of the function.

Is there another way? Maybe a vertical text line, or something?
