Layout loops depending on already existing connections

[philippfromme]

Description

When laying out a loop the connection will always go from bottom to left regardless of already exiting connections. This can potentially lead to overlapping connections:

Current Behavior

Creating a loop will always result in a connection going from bottom to left.

Desired Behavior

Creating a loop results in a connection that ideally doesn't overlap with already existing connections.

We should be a bit smarter in this case.

What exactly is broken about this? What is the expected behavior?

[philippfromme]

The connections overlap. Layouting the loop doesn't take existing connections into account, it will always layout from bottom to right.

[nikku]

So what is the expected behavior then?

Is this something we'd like to persue in the near future? I'd otherwise close this issue.
