Definitely out of the box there is no possibility to place titles.  
But since the chart module has the option to use overlays in the  
shapes, with tweaking  the Metapost-graphic as on page 138 in the  
Metafun manual you might get this in place.
Without studying the sources it might be difficult to use shapes as  
those presented on page 242 of the Metafun manual.
