@Seth, the #4 commit only works when the pad is at least {clearance} larger than the connecting copper shape. If it's not then the router won't let you route to the pads and DRC will complain.

I think the advantage of the #11 solution is that it works with the existing libraries, it's safe, and it gives us a "get out of jail" card to give to users who have issues before 6.0 is ready.

The "ignore footprint copper" is arguably no less of a hack while definitely being less safe (for those who use it, anyway).
