Yes, it is my intention that the user can drop a state within another (non-composite) state and then the containing state automatically has a region added and becomes composite.
The other things currently missing in the state diagram for UML2 is the concept of a statemachine having a region. The states cannot be placed directly in the sattemachine but should be placed in the region that is owned by the statemachine. If you look at the current implementation in UML2 mode I think that is why states are not appearing in the XMI even though they are drawing on the diagram. Aside from this and the composite state issue I think state diagrams for UML2 are pretty much complete. Regards Bob.
