gEDA-bug: [Bug 707064] Re: Remove unconnected net cues for netname connected nets

[KaiMartin <707064@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tested the patch. And it works great!
The red marks really stick out. But they don't get into the way, even when zoomed way in.

Looking forward to see this in head.

Title:
  Remove unconnected net cues for netname connected nets

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  New

Bug description:
  This came up after a presentation with potential users.

  The red cues on the end of unconnected net was perceeved as a nice
  warning that something was unconnected.

  Their expectation was that a net connected at one end should lose the
  second cue (on its unconnected end) if the net is named. This could be
  implemented either to mean "has a netname=" attribute, or that it is
  connected to something which has one.

  This helps to preserve the semantic that "red splodge" == something to
  fix.

  We also noted that the pin cues were not nearly as visible as they
  ought to be when projected!
