Wishlist: multiple parallel traces routing

[Valerio Nappi]

Would be very handy to be able to route multiple parallel traces across the board.

Selecting all the starting point (beeing pads or the end of partially pre routed traces) and starting to route one of them, the router follows that trace with all the others. Eventually, when they get to the destination pad, the interactive router tries to connect them all to the respective pads.

It's similar to what is already implemented for the differential pairs, but it would allow to choose which traces to route, not limited to two, and not only selected according to the name.

Also, differential pairs could be routed with the this same tool.

A similar feature can be seen in Altium designer:

Could this be added to Kicad6?

[Valerio Nappi (valerio.new)]

It would be cool, even more since #1419146 looks already committed for Kicad 6. To me this looks like a feature that has to go with it.
I am very sorry that i can't contribuite myself for the implementation, but my programming skills are basically zero.
I'm grateful to everyone who is writing kicad code! Let us know if there is any chance you'll be able to fit this feature in the kicad 6 schedule
