They actually ought to at least be placed reasonably, maybe resized,
according to component size.  They look really stupid on a big
component.  Not sure how exactly they're suppose to behave during
resize, though.

Thank you, I have applied it to the devel branch.  

You may want to look at Flowchart - Box to a slightly better
implementation.  This one has the weirdness that if you pick the
top-left corner and resize it smaller than its minimum size, you
actually move it.  That is not quite the way it should be.
