Does graphite support text annotated graphs?

An example of this feature in other products is google's annotated timeline visualization package.
http://code.google.com/apis/visualization/documentation/gallery/annotatedtimeline.html

The advantage of this feature is that one can combine numeric graphs with text annotations about significant events that have or are occurring in the system.  i.e. service or hardware restarts, configuration changes, etc.  The combination of these two can help infer first-causes of problem or unexpected behavior.

Are there plans to add this feature?
