PAD_CONN as a separate type IMHO has no reason to exists exactly because
is a simple smd pad without a layer, i.e. has no special behaviour
attached to it...

I'd suggest to simply remove it as a pad type and convert it to an SMD
pad (unless of course there actually is a place where PAD_CONN has
a different semantic than PAD_SMD). grep would help here :P
