Okay, I'm wondering if the hysteresis bug in the connectors when they 
are smooth attached to rounded corners is inevitable or not. Try 
making the "whoops" connector smooth and then drag the middle down a 
little ways. You should see both ends start to jiggle once the arrows 
are trying to point to the rounded corners. If it just happens to be 
two different positions jostling for stability, you could hack in a 
2-length loop detector into whatever algorithm tries to find the best 
layout. Other than that, I don't have time to dig through the code.

I'll keep digging, and I'm sure I can suggest a feature or two. I've 
been looking forward to the completion of this great-looking package 
for a while. Kudos, Ned. :)
