"Finale" mode values and notes entering

Good evening, I hope you are all well. My name is Paris Perisinakis and I am a musician and teacher at the two major Universities of my country (Greece) and at the National Conservatory. I am also the author of 10 music books (repertoire and educational content). I've been using Finale as a sheet music program for years, and it's true that I'm used to it and know it pretty well. But as you know, Finale is ceasing to exist and its place (in my life and in my lessons, books) must be taken by another software. Trying out MuseScore I found a lot of interesting and original stuff that I think I'll be using soon. But I'm writing you this note to suggest something revolutionary.
The major difference that gives me misgivings is the way values ​​and notes are entered. If you don't already know, in Finale, in addition to writing with the piano keyboard, we use the keyboard arrows to position (up - down) the note while from the numeric keyboard we enter the values ​​(fourth, eighth, etc.). Because in Greece (but also in Italy, France, Germany, etc.) we call the notes "Do, Re, Mi" etc. it is difficult to type unrelated (C, D, E etc) letters to write them in the score. Would it be possible in an open source program like MuseScore to include such a parameter in the settings? I believe it would greatly serve those who have been using Finale up to now and increase your buyers and users that would prefer you. Most of my colleagues face the same problem, that's why I took the courage to write to you. Regards, keep up the good work!
