I suggest it because (1) it's awesome and (2) it's suggestive of
'autorouter."


  Back on topic now, we might get some good hints for future features from
Toporouter (the commercial autorouter product).  One of the ones that
they tout is understanding logical equivalence of certain pins.  You
could further imagine a very advanced version of this that could select
which slot of (say) a quad op-amp to use.

  But, let me also voice that I'm 100% behind getting the basics working
first.  I would *love* to be able to use this for even single sided
boards, today.  Adding in existing geometry is key.  Vias would be
great, too. :)

Honestly, optimization beyond what's already there would be great for a
future version, but I'm so craving just what I've seen so far.
