I have no problem using P mode with center AF. If I don't like the light metering, I point to somewhere in the same focal plane with a different brightness until I like the picture on the screen. Then half-press, recompose and take the picture. Maybe it's because I've been doing this for ages, but this usually works fine for static scenes.

Like in the picture above. It's focused at infinity, so you can move the camera with the center point AF at any point in the background until you like the brightness. Then half-press, recompose and you're done.
