Consider a corner below the via that happens to be made of two long legs
and a short connection. If I move this via, I want the short segment to
move too, rather than stretch. Only the long legs should be stretched.
This kind of complicated track layout below a via is pretty common when
working with different grids. In fact, it is difficult to avoid on a board
that combines metric and imperial footprints.
