We could actually leave it alone almost indefinitely, because if the
symbol doesn't do anything with slotting then the gaf tools don't care. 
And the symbols I envision wouldn't do anything with slotting.

In fact, most of what I've been brainstorming on could be achieved with
the existing tools as-is, plus some plugins and scripts.  The future
work would be to take the concept and make it less user-input-intensive,
like have gschem show pin numbers and reference designators on some
versions of the schematic, even though that information is not really
part of a schematic as I define them.
