HI all,
        We had talked a bit about this functionality but I
don't remember anyone saying any specifics about putting
this into the code.  How do all the developer folks feel
about this?  Is this something that is planned?  Rejected?
Cogitating on it?  Already hacked in?  :-)

Thanks very much,
Craig

Make two objects at the centroid of the area: one with the attributes in the status text, the other with the multiline data in the status text. Wouldn't require a spec change, and would display on any client that parses multiline
objects.

Seems like a reasonable approach.  As long as the multiline object
could hold enough vertice information.  That appears doubtful to me.

Perhaps one could create a "trimmed-down" multiline that gave the
major components of the shape, then additional multiline objects for
those clients that could piece all of them together into one object.
