However, the lack of repeatable tag endings (always a must in almost every jazz standard) is so...so frustrating. Users should be able to define the number of repeats of tags.

Secondly, there should be a way of "locking'' the page so accidental touches during a performance don't ruin the tracks.

Thirdly there should be an ABSOLUTE end to the song after the tag..without the software automatically counting down and repeating the song..this is ESSENTIAL.
On that last item, I guess you're referring to BiaB playing the whole song over again from the beginning. That can be stopped.
Click on the Loop icon and select "NEVER Loop Entire Song".

FWIW, I've long found the first/second endings fruatrating. What I usually do is go to Edit->Song Form->Settings for this song
and check the box, lower left, that says "start the ending 2 bars early", then use the last two bars of the song for the turnaround and put the non-turnaround bars and any further tag after the song. This certainly doesn't deal with every case, but I find I can make it work with most.

The other technique people use is to just use "one big chorus", but that's impractical if one wants to change the number of choruses at short notice for, e.g., an extra solo.
