Updating the bend editing graph to bend a note down from original pitch too?
So far, I can only easily bend a note upward or bending the note up/down with any tones at/above the original note pitch, but I can't go anywhere down from the original pitch by moving the nodes in the bend editing graph. The nodes' lowest positions represent the original note pitch and cannot go any lower. Can the bend editing graph get an equal capability of creating bends in the opposite direction of what is possible now, using lower tones? Having the original pitch be the center line of the graph instead would be much better than being the bottom line, so down bends from original pitch can be possible this way.

That is because a guitar can't bend down, so by design of that bend tool and the instrument it has been implemented for
I think we at least need a new feature for instruments like flutes where you can lip bend down using the bend editing graph in a similar way, and be able to change the appearance so that it can look like a straight glissando line that can function without a second note to connect its end to.

There are already separate elements for these types of things, see the falls etc on the Arpeggios and Glissandi palette.

Those unfortunately don't have any effect on playback
