Bulia has done some work towards being able to edit multiple knotholders and nodepaths at the same time (ShapeEditor code). Maybe if you get that working, it solves your problem.
That would be very interesting. Bulia, can you tell what work you already did, what remains to be done and how to proceed? (I'm CC-ing you in case you missed this conversation), Thanks!
Right now ShapeEditor is a simple transparent container that just passes everything to a single knotholder or nodepath it contains. It's an isolation layer. I think it will be very easy to enable it to hold multiple knotholders and manage them simultaneously. The reason I didn't do this myself is because I'm more interested in multiple nodepaths, and this is much more difficult to do because it will need to e.g. handle multiple node selections and treat them as one. (Right now I tend to think that it will be actually easier to allow a single nodepath to hold multiple paths and have one node selection for all of them; but even if it is implemented this way, this does not make ShapeEditor unnecessary because it is still needed for treating multiple knotholders, or knotholders and one nodepath, as a whole.)
Let me know if you have any specific questions.
