In point of fact, the existing auto-router has a set of cost functions, 
iteration counts etc that really should be available for adjustment at 
the user interface.

Recently I've been making improvements to the autorouter; it produces 
much more "normal" looking tracks and generally is performing better. 
With that said I think that most people have unrealisitic expectation of 
what an auto router should be able to do, or how simple they are to 
implement.
