I also want. As is now connections are stored as lines and an attribute could be added to one of the lines, I guess it would be possible to achieve this with current file format although there may be a need split lines in two sometimes to form segments.

What would be needed in gschem would a function to select all line segments belonging to a net and a function selecting all lines belonging to a segment which possibly also sometimes have to split a line in the middle to form a segment. Then an attribute is added or changed it will be attached to only one off the lines and then I guess it will work with gnetlist.
