   I want to draw discrete resistor symbols in my schematic diagram, and

   circuits provided by a resistor network.  I also want to draw discrete
   LED symbols in my schematic, and fabricate using dual- or triple-LED
   packages.  Ditto for capacitors, transistors, etc.

   Here here!

   My thinking is that alongside the .sch file will be one or more
   additional files that collectively record the mapping between symbols,
   circuits, components and packages.  When gschem sees that file, it has
   the information it needs to show actual pin numbers and will
   optionally
   do so.  To achieve that, I bet we end up building some kind of
   in-memory
   database that we don't have today.

   In the lines of the one mans upsmanship....
   The extra data need not be a separate file, a table element in the
   schematic may meet the needs.
