java version of annotation textbox?

This is one of those barely-has-anything-to-do-with-matlab
questions.... I'm looking for a more customizable version of
the annotation('textbox') that can (among other things) have
a parent other than the scribe axes. Maybe I could piece
this together from the annotation m files or kludge one
together from the edit uicontrol, but I thought i'd see if
anyone knows of a quick drop in replacement for this type of
object?

Basically it needs to functions like a powerpoint textbox,
leting the user type in text, be resizeable, be formattable
(different fonts, colors, background), and have an arbitrary
axes for its parent.

Any leads?
