To me, pin swaps outside of one package are beyond the scope gschem needs work on right now.
gschem needs upgrades first.  It's also beyond any of the detailed ideas I had for planning.

To my way of thinking, it you do "annotation of *any* type" back to the schematic, you need
to keep it small, say 6 or 8 pins, then rehook it up with some loose guideline like ratlines,
or it gets to be too much.

I can't code on it anytime soon.  It's "out of scope".
