No.  We have discussed various solutions, but it's tricky.  It has to be
done in a way consistent with each object, and in such a way that saved
diagrams work correctly.  If we just added connection points at
user-defined places, they wouldn't move the right way when the object
changes shape.  There's some work on allowing a 'gap' at the start and end
of a line, which could allow the whole object to act as a connectionpoint,
but that's future music.
