IMNSHO this (crossed but not connected buses) is a clearly bad thing and a sign
(like more then 3 indentation levels in source code) that the schematic needs
to be redrawn with less spaghetti. Plus with current default values (cue
diameter for buses intersection is equal to the bus line thickness) in gEDA is
difficult to distinguish connected buses from just crossed, and after export to
monochrome image (which is default in gaf export) just impossible.

(Remembering xkcd strip about workflow) But here you're probably right.

I think in a similar way, but there is a small problem: can't come up how to
send these values to libgeda and libgedacairo functions. Now I see two possible
ways: add argument to o_..._new and cue drawing function or add new properties
for TOPLEVEL and EdaRenderer objects. And I dislike them both (due to obvious
API changing).
