Why should the GUI discourage zero length pins? After all, the black
line is just a decoration. The sensitive endpoint is all that counts.
If the user feels, the decoration does not look nice with a particular 
symbol, why should the GUI try to enforce a finite length?

Currently, the multi attribute editor gives no hint, what object it
refers to. I propose to put the name of the symbol in the title bar 
at the head of the dialog. Just like the main window puts the name 
of the schematic into the main bar.
