Should sch-rnd indicate dangling wire ends?

Abstract: It is possible to indicate dangling wire ends and unconnected terminals. The question is whether sch-rnd should do that or not. For this I've looked at what other sch editors do.
A quick research on how other sch editors do this:
- gschem/lepton: filled circle/rectangle
- orcad: similar to gschem
- kicad: circle
- eagle: none
- altium: none
(Youtube tutorial videos are good source on such research.)
It seems both indication and no indication are accepted by users and there is no uiversally accepted style of inidication.
