OK. 
As example. I would like to use Draw to build a layout of an automation
conveyor system. on the layout each object would represent an conveyor part.
And for such conveyor part I would define several user attributes for example,
type of the conveyor element, speeds, assignments into functional groups, and
many other parameters.
So it would be good if user can define several attributes for each object, the
attribute would be: The name, type, and value. And these attributes could be
edited with an dialog box containing the list of attributes with their values.

After saving of such drawing, I would extract an XML file from the document to
import the structure to another program, to build an model of such system, with
all the associations. And on base of such model, I could build even a control
program for such automation system, verify correctness of the model, and do
many actions.

Right now I do similar things using calc. But using of graphic representation
of the objects would improve such work. 
I see that some companies do it using MS visio. They create objects with
defined sets of attributes, and using such objects, they can do many tasks.
