Actually this is already possible - flowtext can flow from one shape to the next. We just don't have UI for that - because really, we must _first_ move flowtext to our namespace behind a svg:switch before we can add any more functionality to it.
This is tied to the subject I mentioned earlier in another thread, the 1:1 correspondence between XML element nodes and SPObjects. This paradigm is somewhat limiting, and storing the XML nodes all the time is eating some memory. In fact, the mere possibility of accessing the XML from the SP tree feels wrong to me - how the object is stored as XML should be private to that object's implementation.
