Summary: gschem netname behaviour

Initial Comment:
I think the netnaming behaviour is a little bit confusing for me.

e.g. I draw some net from component A to B with a corner inside the net. 

A----netname=sig_s----<br/>
                     |<br/>
                     -----?----B<br/>

Now i'am assign with right-click->attribute an netname to the net-segment direct connected to component A.
Now the complete net should have the netname "sig_s".
If i netlist the schematic everything is fine so far.
But: If i have a very large schematic it could happend, that i name an other part of the net, a other net-segment, with an other netname.

Furthermore the MAIN issues is the following problem:
If i do right-click->attribute to the net-segment with the "?" i estimate the already filled netname with value "sig_s".
