The only off-hand idea I have is to make the graphics as SVG and then
make the text as links to anchors in the final deliverable file(s)
using normal link syntax for XML-DITA.

But then your delivery format has to support SVG, which means PDF or
(X)HTML running in a relatively recent browser. Get ready to do some
XSL-FO programming....

Say for example, I have workflow, where users have to complete step A
to D
in a sequential order, which is represented with a single graphic. Dev
team
requests us to link the Step A in the graphic with the Step A topic.
