source= is a symbol attribute. I'm confused, how can you specify
underlying schematics from within an uninstanciated symbol? Unless,
source= is being used for something else? Are these symbol source=
attributes meant to be some sort of default? I haven't found a moment
to really look at gnetman yet.

Right now the right mouse button popup menu is hard coded in
gschem/noweb/x_menus.nw I might change that to a scheme variable which
you could change mostly on the fly. I don't use the right mouse button
menu much nowadays. I perfer having the mousepan attached to that button,
but unfortunately the menu was written before the mousepan, and I won't
change the default.
