My best idea is, that I do it by pads which have a zero width and a
specified clearance. Unfortunately, those will have a rounded corner, so
rectangular corner seems impossible (I can reduce the radius, if I make it
from more pieces, but it never will be zero).


A zero width pad may fail the DRC. Being able to specify keepouts
would be a welcome addition to the footprint file format.

I use the silkscreen to provide keepout hints. Not ideal but it works.

Thanks, could you show me an example?
