This line of state.c
	message_warning(_("This diagram uses the State object for initial/final states.\nThat option will go away in future versions.\nPlease use the Initial/Final State object instead\n"));
led me to believe that new object types are preferred over properties which disciminate between different variants of a single object type.
Otoh, states and state clusters seem to have more in common than states and terminal states (which have no attached actions).

Should I change it?
