So not only does the EDP support this feature, it has multiple variants of
it. Starting to feel some EDP envy here. I should have mentioned I don't own
one, but I was curious.

With quantize on, press Mute. It finishes the current loop and
stops.
From Mute you can either: a) unmute from where the loop
would have been if
it kept going, b) trigger the loop from the start to
play once and stop, c)
trigger the loop from the beginning to keep
playing.
From MIDI you have more options. At any time you can do
b or c above
without being in mute first, i.e. retrigger the loop from the
beginning to
play once, or retrigger it from the beginning to keep going.
These are the
SamplePlay and ReTrigger DirectMidi commands
respectively.
You also have the sampler triggering options, where a
MIDI note is assigned
for each loop. The SamplerStye parameter sets how
the loops are played:
"Run" means when the note comes the loop starts
playing from wherever it
last was left and keeps going.
"Once"
means when the note comes the loop plays once from the start and
stops.
"Start" means when the note comes the loop starts from the
beginning and
keeps looping.
"Attack" means when the note comes the
loop plays from the beginning and
keeps going until the note off message
comes, then it stops.
The sampler triggering is also velocity
sensitive. (set by the velocity
parameter.)
