Hello Marcel!
I have taken some time to answer this because I am not really sure what
to answer.
Your questions: How much time?
I don't understand the question. Is your question about when this will
be available or how much time you will have to spend implementing it?
If it is the first I can say, I have already implemented the
corresponding thing for SettingsTabs so the Details Pane shouldn't be
that complicated.
Adding a new Diagram Type I guess is a lot more complicated.
