XaraEx can do this. I just made a pretty complex connections diagram of a 
multipoint international webcast with 4 VTC's and multiple switchers and all 
kinds of other objects in it, all labeled. You have to use the selection tool 
to select a text box, which will become 'highlighted' by having four markers 
placed around it - then hovering your cursor around different regions of the 
text box allows for different options, including resizing and deformations, 
and positioning
