It will be nice, but:
- Legacy code joins tracks much better - arranged to grid - no not necessary
additional tracks than needed. GAl does not respect the chosen grid. Screenshots
with compare attached.
- Legacy code when dragging handles all connected together track segment's ends
in current mouse pointer position(GAL only two)
- When editing areas/zones, GAL has no „Add cutout area” option.
More GAL's sins I do not remember, but probably are… ;)
