Bug Description

"pcbnew" has a problem connecting to internal planes.
I selected the proper layers for the via's and then selected the proper working layer and created/filled a zone.
It looks like there are connections, but it still shows a ratsnest to the ground and power connections and I have unconnected nets.

From all the discussion on the mailing lists, I believe now that zones are not "electrically aware" as far as DRC is concerned. What I understand is that you have to put tracks down for all connections, then fill over them as the last step using one or more zones. So maybe you want zones to be electrically aware? What are they doing in geda regarding zones? Maybe we can borrow some ideas and code from them.
