Ahh, I see.  I was couldn't find the use cases in the combo box earlier (too
many objects in the model) ;-).  I was expecting that if you right-click on
a use case or EP in the explorer and click "Create Diagram" that it would
automatically associate the two, and that the sequence diagram would then
appear as a subnode of the use case in the explorer.
