How is progress going on the Connector tool?
How difficult would it be to hack moving the connector endpoints onto the stroke of an arbitrary end path? I think most of the necessary calculations already exist in the code: http://inkscape.modevia.com/doxygen/html/nodepath_8cpp.php#8395e2b195614934a... http://inkscape.modevia.com/doxygen/html/bezier-utils_8cpp.php#114a9074e2c76... http://inkscape.modevia.com/doxygen/html/classInkscape_1_1ObjectSnapper.php#...
Likewise I wonder what it would take to adjust connector placement given the end marker paths?
Well, technically it's *easy* to adjust connector placement to the end of the path. The problem is that it looks like crap because the end cap of the line shows through. The ideal solution would be to have some mechanism to either allow forshortening the line segment or to have some way to mask the line segment. But I have no idea how to do either of those things... If anyone can implement a feature like that, I can fix up the markers to use it pretty quickly.
