Currently line arrows are not really saved in the dia files in an
extensible way. They are stored as the integer value representing their
position in the ArrowType enumeration. This does not really lend itself
to having arbitrary arrow heads where not every head may be available on
every computer. We will probably want to change it to save a string name
of the arrow head instead.
There was one person who said he was interested in adding this feature.
