Let's not get too hung up on EN60617-3. I really don't care if KiCad is compliant to some standard other than exporting to third party file formats. What I do care about is the user experience. If the goal is to make it obvious to the user (IMO a good thing) that a schematic connection is or is not made, then I would rather do what makes the best user experience rather than follow some standard generated by government body and/or committee.
