Came up in #277292: support percent values to set the tempo
Metric modulations AKA relative tempos like quarter note equals dotted quarter don't set playback tempo right, but always to 120 BPM, the default.

Regression No ⇒ Yes

it is a regression vs. older development builds, these relative tempo markings did work back when they got implemented.

Workaround is of course to calculate the tempo yourself and set via Inspector. Downside is that you need to re-caculate if the tempo before it changes

Tempo is also recalculated correctly after starting/ending editing its text or after adding another tempo marking before this metric modulation. The issue is that is not updated correctly when initially adding metric modulation to a score.
