Isn't a word of caution in order, since not all TO-92 transistors use the same order of B/C/E pins? Or is the one you've provided the standard now? I think what is required are multiple TO-92 footprints, where the left/right/center pins have different "numbers". Then, depending on the exact transistor you are using on your board, you select the appropriate footprint for its pinout.
