If I understand correctly, what you need is a figure and a connection
from/to the figure. Take a look at AbstractConnectionEditPart - this models
a connection from a figure.
GraphicalNodeEditPolicy.getConnectionCreateCommand() helps to tie the figure
to the connection. Once created, the connection is "glued" to the figure amd
moves along with it. I can send you some code examples if you need them.

Ok, now I understand why you would need a line hanging from a box. You are
making a sequence diagram :-)
I would suggest making the box and the line part of the same figure. After
all, both of them represent one object in the diagram. If you make them part
of the same figure, the messages could become connections between the
object-figures.
And when you connect two objects with a message, you'll need to introduce
timeslice boxes as part of the line. This will be easier if you make them
part of the object-figure.

Polyline should only be used for connections.
Your ASCII art looks like it could just be one figure, or maybe one figure
with a special border whose insets are based on some child figure's
preferred size or something.
