Not just that. If this is implemented, I'd like to see this for the PointSymbolizer as well.

Apparently this feature is called a Leader Line and http://www.maptext.com/lbz-extensions.shtml is a good example of what a Leader Line looks like. Hope something like this is doable.

  • milestone changed from 0.6.2 to 0.7.0

while very cool, this is not something I can see getting to for 0.6.2, pushing to next major release for consideration.
