Add autotext to dimensions similar to level dimensions

We have long wished for the ability to add text to dimensions without it changing them to static. When adding text to dimensions it is usually the same set of text like
PLATE, CLR., MIN. CLR. etc.

What about adding text as autotext similar to how level dimensions can add autotext and also the reference level?


Side note: when I checked the out-of-the box autotext, I was surprised that the reference levels available in the level dimension tool weren't there File>Info>Project Info.

This is absolutely essential -- without this function, you loose the automation -- you loose the BIM.
