gEDA-user: A new default for thermals?

[Ben Jackson <ben@xxxxxxx>]

What do people think of changing the default thermal behavior:

1)  If the thermal tool is used on a pin or a via overlapping a pad,
you get the current behavior (a rounded, diagonal 4-point connection).

2)  If the thermal tool is used on a via that's not touching a pad,
you get a solid connection by default (currently the last of several
options available if you shift-click with the thermal tool).

I was also thinking it would be clever to have a way to place a via
that's connected to the current layer.  Eg if you shift-click to place
a via, it's connected to the current layer, just like if you'd switched
to the thermal tool and clicked once (with an eye toward using those
new rule above as well).
