1) MIDI CONTROLLER DATA - AUTOMATIC SLOPES
Is there any way to draw in a continuous "slope" of data in the bottom pane of the MIDI Editor window?

yes there is. however it only applies to current selected events and on non-freehand drawing mode (ie. Edit/Select Mode/Edit On), on whether ../Edit Draw (free-hand pencial switch) is:
a. OFF: click+drag will draw a straight line over the event-value bars view (ie. lower pane), being suitable to draw perfect linear value ramps;
b. ON: click+drag will draw free-hand over and capping the same selected events;
again, note that it only affects current selected events and nothing else.

2) MIDI CONTROLLER DATA - SLIGHT MISALIGNMENT
there seems to be a gap between the first point and all subsequent points. Is there a reason for this, or is it a minor bug?

that's obviously not a bug but rather some kinda mouse gesture acquisition effect, or better said, it copes with how fast and precise you want your mouse pointer click+drag movement to be: rule is, i'm afraid you cannot have both :) you either do it slow and precise or fast and gross ;)

one other thing is that a mouse click+drag gesture is detected to start only after you drag it over a few pixels around, often a 2..4px displacement from first click point, so you'll certainly will get this equivalent gap in the drawing alond the timeline, especially on smaller snap-to-beat settings and greater zoom-out levels.

3) AUTOMATION - DRAGGING MULTIPLE NODES
Is there any way to drag them up/down?

no. dragging of selected automation nodes do only work horizontally. you can however double-click on one single node en have a value entry field (a spin-box) to change its vale, but yeah, it's not what you asked.

4) "VALUE TYPE" SHORTCUTS
Would it be possible to add shortcut keys for "Value type" (Note Velocity, Controller, Pitch Bend etc. info) in the MIDI Editor please?

maybe. will have to make it brand new menu trees for that, just like the View/Snap/... ones have been imposed years before. as a matter o fact maybe a couple of new menu items should enter the scene: View/Note Type/... and then the one you actually request: View/Value Type/... aha. it could well be one nice holiday project don't you think? ;)

hth.
