An oft-wished for feature: Heirarchical diagrams. Suggestions welcome.



Just include diagram nodes into a container figure, calculate it's bounds and 
draw some rectangle 'round it. little textbox attached to one of the upper 
corners and thats it.
Extend context menus of diagram nodes (nodes in graph theory, classes, use 
cases, messages, no associations) by "Add to [list of containers]" and 
"Remove from [list of containers]" and it's almost interactive. (Context 
menus come from a factory method include in every figure, don't they?)

Why not extending the "Big Package" holding "DiagramFigures" and all necessary 
Figures inherit from this abstract class (including context menu)? 
Associations are only contained, if one of the ends is attached to a class 
and this class contained in a "Big Package".
For sequence diagrams just invert this rule, life lines, foci, destructions, 
classes are only contained, if they are attached to a message, that is 
contained...makes no sense to include not-attached classes or foci.

(Think I'll have to have a look at the source to use the right classnames)
