However I didn't yet find a good way to make connecting other xlets than the first ones easier. Maybe selecting xlets instead of selecting object?
How about selecting a connection and hitting left or right arrow to shift it over (either the inlet or the outlet depending on whether you hold the shift key).
For multiple connections, maybe it's even more useful to have a version of "duplicate" (control-shift-D?) that duplicates connections into and out of the selection too.
Another idea I've had for years: hit "enter" in an object box to make a new, empty one just below and connect the two.
I'm going to collect all these ideas on one place in my dolist and see what they look like together... I'd better not try this for 0.39 though; I'm just cleaning up bugs now.
