I don't know what version of dia you use, mine does support sequence 
diagrams. It is a bit tricky to cope with more than one activity focus per 
life line (just overlay them *g*) and needs some time to make messages look 
synchronous (straight forward horizontal, due to fixed/discrete connection 
points), but afterall I'm able to draw sequence diagrams.

Did I mix up something or is my sequence diagram (objects in horizontal 
line, vertical lifelines with rectangular boxes on them, cute crosses for 
destructions, pretty arrows for messages) different from yours?

Maybe sub-activities (call from one activity focus of object A to a 
sub-activity of the origin focus, maybe to illustrate recursion or stacking 
of method calls) are a point to do something. But everyday-sequence 
diagrams already look fine.
