Hi Steve,
What you're looking at there is draft svg specification. Something that wasn't accepted as svg. At the moment, SVG 1.1 and 2.0 both don't have connector support. This specification was spun out into a module because it's not useful to web browsers, so it sits over there waiting for someone to add it to inkscape.
But even if we did, it wouldn't be supported in browsers, it'd just be useful to us. So not exactly useful overall.
What was your plan?
I'm making a web page with lots of screw heads, and when you click two of them, a connector (wire) connects the two of them. If they'd worked in a browser, SVG connectors would have been the easiest way to do this. But now that I know SVG connectors won't work, I'll just use a line segment and properly set its d property based on the cx and cy of the two clicked screw heads. For a straight line segment, I think this is going to be fairly easy. To get good looking curved wires will require quite a few calculations.
But before I went to all that trouble, I just wanted to check and make sure I couldn't use a SVG connector.
Thanks,
