On my version (9 Pro US English) I have something that sounds the same as what you're describing, but it's called the "Callout Tool". In JavaScript, this would be a FreeText annotation where you'd specify the "callout" property. The Acrobat JavaScript Reference refers you to the PDF Reference for more information about this property.

I always thought this arrow is a callout because of the PDF and JavaScript Reference but i never get something with the JavaScript ".callout[b]s[/b]"... but now i see it´s ".callout" withouts "s"....

thx for help.
