Same here sans eaglecad. I've been thinking how to make reasonable heuristics to put zones in place where track makes a loop. The better way would probably be a cutout routing tool though. I'm looking forward to see CERN geometry engine merged in and used in some semi-intelligent autorouting which would help this "polygon routing" as well.
