I agree on that, while the custom sheets are still not recorded in Dia
files output (or I missed something), as I already said.

It should be an option to keep compatibility, and would be not a so hard
job to implement (simply use svg <g> and viewports elements should do
the trick, or "tar/zip" archives format to store (in ".diZ" extension?)).
