My suggestion would make nothing harder for the user: Maybe something
like a checkmark in the toolbar that turns green when user select menu
item "build netlist" and turns red when after this action the user
changes connection of nets segments. For my own tool the problem is,
that it can currently not generate netlists at all, so I will leave that
feature to later releases. But I think gschem can use gnetlist to
generate a netlist, so only some code for comparing netlists (checksum?)
is necessary, and an red/green indicator.
