The biggest new feature since the last snapshot is the ability to connect one polyline to another while creating or extending it. Also there is no longer a separate tool for creating polygons, since you can now create them by closing the polyline explicitly. Finally, with the Create Polygon tool selected, you can extend a polyline by clicking on a handle on either end of it.

Note that the handles to extend or to connect to a polyline only show up for selected objects, so you need to select them first before switching to the Create Polygon tool. This is done for performance reasons and to avoid too much handle clutter, but if this is too inconvenient we can consider other solutions. Ctrl+A can be used to select all objects on the current layer.

Also several fixes have been made, and two pull requests were merged.
