Thanks.  I don't know if/when I'll look at sch-rnd for my own use again,
but I make extensive use of this type of connection in lepton-eda today
and the ability to transition designs might matter to me someday.

Meh.  I see your point, but I actually like dense passives on schematics,
to the extent that I've already created "smaller than default" symbols
for most passives which when used in combination with the terminal to
terminal connections allows me do things like express series and
terminating components on busses with minimal schematic area and fewer
mouse clicks while drawing.=20
