I concur. While pcb might be the layout program most gschem users target, I
would not be keen on making too many assumptions that this is the design flow
being used.
On the other hand, Peter C. is/was working on "attribute helpers", with
exactly that sort of thing in mind (including browsing the PCB library). I
think he was doing it as something you have to enable in a gschemrc, mostly
written in Scheme.
