Description
I keep forgetting to do the offset calculation when I know the load address and entry address rather than offset. It would be convenient if the load options UI let me choose address, or alternatively, let me use simple expressions in fields (e.g. Entry Point Offset: 0xf000 - 0x1000)

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the load options UI and the handling of Entry Point Offset, then determine whether the accepted scope is an address mode, simple expressions, or both. Done means users can specify the entry point from a known load address without manually calculating the offset.
