wish list re triplets

....and now my problem is triplets. More specifically, it's triplet brackets. I'd like to be able to position them either upwards or downwards, as we can for slurs, ties, and stems. As is, they interfere with notes on other staves (or in other voices) about 20%-30% of the time. I realize there are workarounds, and I use them. But they take extra time and an extra (layered) staff, and it would be SO nice to just have the program flip the brackets over when asked to.

I would like the option of hiding the -3- altogether if the next umpteen measures have nothing but triplets, e.g., Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.

There's a workaround for that, too, but it involves a hidden change in the time signature and a precisely calculated hidden change in tempo, and it would certainly be better to have the option of hiding the bracket.
