Agreed, you can use MIDI for such a rhythm, not with chord symbols but with the actual notes that comprise the chords.

BIAB does not support the eighth notes in a row of chords in your example. There are workarounds, though. One is to explore the Expanded styles marketed by Bob 'Notes' Norton of nortonmusic.com

Another is to experiment by doubling the duration of what you want and stretching what would be one measure across two. By adjusting the tempo, you can sometimes (but not always) find a style that will work.
