I like the idea. I think the ease with which you can slap together a
rough floorplan in Visio attests to how Dia could do this quite well.

I think Cycas and many of the other drafting tools available are quite
nice, but they really answer a different need than the "drag and drop
some shapes" approach Dia allows -- more for the person trying to
model a home than for the person trying to figure out how to shuffle
his furniture around.

Or the person trying to make floormaps for his Shadowrun game, for
that matter. ;)
