I've done this and it works quite well.....

But this works a bit better for me when trying to write something formally.
That is, it's nice to jam with the MD and MM in pattern mode and do
everything manually.  But for more complex (or rapid) changes and for
finalizing a song's structure, I prefer song mode.  It's more focused
since I can abstract away from structure and just deal with sound.  But
yes, it is time consuming to make sure that the two match up correctly.
