One thing I did notice is that bus entries do not draw the connection
point so they cannot show their connection status.  It would be nice if
bus entries exhibited the same behavior.  I'm not sure how much work
would be involved.  I'm surprised I never noticed that before or AFAIR
no one has every said anything about it.
