Hopefully before Christmas, if the bugs are willing.

The better question is really, "Why isn't it possible to attach text to
any object?".  The FS line shows how it could be done, at least for
lines -- not so trivial for polygons and such, but you could imagine an
'attach text' menu item that adds a new text with a handle bound to that
object... an interesting idea for an extension, but not one I'll have
time for any time soon.

User properties?  You mean that the user should be able to add text
fiels to the properties dialog?  It would be easy to allow all objects
to have that (except the UML class:), anybody up for the challenge?
