I can't do it, but it should be possible to write an AppleScript to do
this, even though I expect Freemind isn't scriptable.  You would just
have to make something that takes input of the form "position text,"
parse that and dump them into the appropriate place.  If you can use a
"default" position it become much simpler.  Unfortunately I don't know
enough AS to do the fancy "using terms from" block that's needed to
interface with QS.
