...are great! Thank you for that!
But: they are not very easy to work with. A simple thing to improve their appearance might be to add the possibility to align the text in vertical direction too! Now you have set callout size to adopt to the text, but then you also have to set the pointer size so that it works well, and then maybe you have to move it all in place again....
To make it even better it would be nice if you could set the size of the ellipse (or whatever) and keep it constant (around the text) while resizing the callout.

Well, the major drawback is the design editor with the drag handles. The callout would actually need more then 8 drag handles to resize the rectangle: it would need one extra handle to move the pointer. This was too difficult to implement in this short time, we perhaps add this later to improve the handling.
