I am a math student and find myself making a lot of directed labeled
graphs. I currently use xfig but dia seems a bit faster to use. I was
wondering if it were possible to add an option for lines/curves. In
particular, instead of only being able to specify arrowheads at the
endpoints, it would be nice if there were an option that would add an
arrohead in the exact middle of the line/curve pointing in the tangent
direction.

Technically not very hard (though some multi-segmented curves may be
hard to find a midpoint on), but not something there's been a call for
before.

 Keyboard hotkeys and an "update" command like in xfig would be
nice as well.

Hotkeys are not possible with the current text input system, as there's
no separate text mode, so we always need to have the keypresses
available for text.  That will change in a later version.

What does the update command do in xfig?
