unique witness markers at ends of dimension strings

We are considering a new office standard at OWP which will help make our plans more legible:

We would like to be able to manually change an individual witness marker (ie: circle, slash, arrow, etc). Currently, only all the markers can be changed.

Having this ability would allow us to differenciate whether a dimension is to a colunmline, wall, or clear dimension.

I wouldn't mind a few other dimension tool improvements... like the ability to "break" dimension leader lines.
Bad graphic ... but you get the picture.

I just saw that as a new feature in Autocad the other day... kind of cool!

Just drew this up to create my own poll -- you guys beat me to it. Here's the pic for what it's worth... arrow to designate finished surface, slash to rough framing.

For that matter it would be nice to be able to create our own arrow heads of any type.
