gEDA-user: pcb, Remove Connected Question

[Stefan Salewski <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sometimes it is necessary to rip off a longer trace.
Doing this with the DEL tool is some work, and sometimes it is necessary
to make obstacles invisible first. So I was glad when I found "Remove
connected" action -- when pressed SHIFT BACKSPACE traces under the mouse
pointer is removed. But this does not delete connected traces only, but
remove complete nets! I have deleted complete power nets with this
function, while I wanted to delete a trace only. So I stopped to use
this function. Is there a way to delete a trace consisting of multiple
line segments, without the risk of removing much more?
(If not: Then maybe the name "Remove Connected" should be changed to
"Remove Net" so user is warned.) 

Best regards

Stefan Salewski
