No. Dave is right. What you are referring to, I have just discovered, is
sometimes called "grid quantise".

Here is a good explanation of how groove quantise works in protools:

For some really fancy midi stuff going way further than groove quantise, you
could take a look at some of Ntonyx's products, such as StyleEnhancer and
StyleMorpher. If Rosegarden could implement some of those features that
would be very useful for composers.
