Dear Robin:

This is definitely something that we hope to be adding in a future 
release of OmniGraffle.  Since we have already feature frozen 3.0.  
This will probably be on the list for a 3.1 or 4.0 release.

If you have any additional comments or questions please feel free to 
let me know and I will be happy to assist you.

Sincerely,

David Kasprzyk
OmniGraffle Project Coordinator
