In the djboxsym enhancement request department, I'd love if it would
allow rotated text on the top and bottom.  I've got some fancy A/D's
(AD7763) with 64 pins total that have 11 power pins (6 different
kinds!)  and a slew of ground pins (2 kinds).  I like to put power and
ground on the top and bottom respectively, but I'd need rotated text
to have them fit.
