Issues & requests - automatic modification of shapes



Hello, 

The following are as of Dia 0.97.1:

Could the following be considered:  add a default text region 
automatically to any shape, when the shape is placed onto the 
diagram, if the shape does not specify a text region?  The default 
text region could be centered below the shape by default.  

Likewise, maybe insert the special center connection point (the one 
that causes the shape to become highlighted in yellow when the user 
is snapping to it) automatically if it is not in the shape file.  

I suppose the infrastructure needed for these suggestions (instance 
of a shape in a diagram file has different features than the shape 
file in the sheet library) might also be helpful in letting the 
user add connection points to shapes in a diagram (an enhancement 
request that is mentioned in the FAQ on the Web).
