toggling the metronome during playback
I like to use the metronome as a simple percussion element in compositions. I guess I could create a complete drum track and write in the simple percussion as I want, but wonder if there may be a way to toggle the metronome automatically on and off during playback,

You can simply click the metronome button while your piece is playing and the metronome will toggle on and off. Alternatively, you can assign a shortcut to the metronome (I used Alt+M, by default, it is otherwise unused; use a different shortcut if you have assigned Alt+M to something else.)
However, if you mean for the score to turn the metronome on and off, no. You would have to create a percussion score and enter the metronome as percussion notes.
