Hi Matt,
There are still a few possibilities...
I haven't tried this, but you may be able to type the new vertices into a text file, open the text file as a new layer, snap to that layer, & edit your layer, dragging the appropriate point to the new location, where it should snap to exactly the new coordinates (if snapping works as I expect it to).
You can also edit your layer, zooming in & moving the point, checking the cursor coordinates until they show the desired location.
If you can edit your source data outside of QGIS, for example if it is a PostGIS layer, you could update the point's coordinates
using PostGIS/SQL.
HTH,
Brent Wood
