Re. use one softsynth plugin instance in several midi tracks :- nope. If what you're after is having a multi-timbral plugin being fed by several MIDI track/channels, then you can get away with one plugin instance inserted on the corresponding MIDI output bus.
Re. visual grid in the matrix editor that actually reflects the current quantization/snapping :- there's none yet; several people have asked for this before. Personally I find it more like a cumbersome bloat than a real helping guide, but I guess I'm wicked ;)
FWIW, in Qtractor at least, a "beat" is one sub-division of a "bar" and equals the note duration given by the current time-signature denominator, eg. a "beat" equals one quarter-note on a 4/4 time, so that "Beat/4" is the same as a sixteenth note in duration (1/16).
Thanks for the praise. Once in a while one really needs something of the like ;)
