Confirmed on Linux. There appears to be no way to get a track to route inside of the bounding box of a custom pad. Starting or ending.

Vincent, you can achieve the connection using "Allow DRC Violations" of the routing options. You also need to set it to "Highlight Collisions" instead Shove or Walkaround.
