As for connectors, Visio 2007 has a new autorouting tool that is worth looking at. Dunno if Michael Wybrow has Beta1 of new MS Office and whether it's a good idea to nuke Dia in flowcharting battlefiled :)
I've seen the routing tools in Visio 2003 Pro. I wasn't aware of the Office 2007 betas, but I just signed up to be notified of the next one.
Since I can't currently look at these new features of Visio 2007, would you care to comment on what you like about them?
One of the things I'm researching at the moment is orthogonal routing (i.e., connectors made of only vertical and horizinal lines). When this is added to libavoid, Inkscape will have it too.
