The flowchart sheet has a mixture of objects defined in XML and C, so this
is possible. I haven't written code to do full affine transformations
needed for lines. Also, with lines, you usually want non linear
stretching (the lightning example you gave may be an exception) -- that
is, you may want the ends to stay the same and the middle of the line to
stretch, or you may want the middle to repeat. Both of these things are
quite difficult to do correctly and with a simple interface.
