Well to explain in more detail I have an edge-pins part that I have created as a module. However, I used 2* 1x14 headers on the schematic. In Eagle cad I can simply draw in a ratsnest connector and bamn I am done no back annotation needed. At times its more of a hassle to go back and create another library element when all I am doing is hooking up a pin header to an line of edge pins.
