    I think that's probably *too* much control since I have up
    to 15 plots per page and would have to calculate the NDC
    coords for each individual title (right?). Given the lack
    of data on where the subpanels are located on the page at
    the time I need to be adding the title, I can't see anything
    but a laborious trial & error session trying to get the titles
    located properly. I'd much rather wait for the new feature :)
    (and would be happy to beta test it on OS X...)

    I suppose I could add with gsn*String, query coords, delete
    the string, and then add with gsn_text_ndc but...that sure
    sounds awkward (not to mention is it even possible...).

    Here's hoping there's an easier way.

    cheers,
