In the callouts with lines, there are three problems:
(a) The leader line is fixed with the box at "shoulder" point. 
(b) The line gets attached only on the left or right face of the box. 
(c) For small callouts, the line is too far away from the box, and not 
adjustable.

But often we have to shift the callout to one side, to make sure that it does
not cover some part of the underlying figure. In such cases, the shape of the
callout looks very awkward (the leader line looks attached at a strange angle).

Please allow the user to shift this joint-

1. Let the leader line be attached to top and bottom side of the box also.
>> The only condition is that the line cannot cross the callout's own body.

2. The attachment point of the leader line should be adjustable at any point
along the length.

With these changes, the callouts can be made to look very attractive (see
attached sample)
