[Inkscape-user] How to make an *SVG* connector?

Hi all,

I want to be able to make an *SVG* connector that doesn't rely on the facilities of Inkscape to do its thing. According to this URL there is such a thing:

https://dev.w3.org/SVG/modules/connector/SVGConnector.html#ConnectorElement

When I make a connector in Inkscape using the little connector symbol, in XML it shows up as a path, not a connector, and it has inkscape:connector-type. When I save as plain SVG, the inkscape:connector-type goes away, and it's nothing more than a line segment.

How do I make a real SVG connector in Inkscape?

Thanks,

SteveT
