FTCustom Object Question

I'm beginning an application that is going to make heavy use of the FTCustom object and I have a few questions. My custom objects are going to be text and will handle some attributes that FTC doesn't (currently) handle. So ideally I'd like the selection of any combination of text and objects to pass the text attributes into the FTCustom object so that it can update itself properly (or at least look approximately like the user wants). Does that make sense?
Is this possible in the current configuration? If so, how would I go about passing that data into the FTCustom object?
If not currently possible, it's not a big deal and I can explain it away to the client. 
Thanks!
