Folks, I was informed that this particular "feature" was an accident or spin off while developing Windows schematics editor. This goes some way to explaining why when I phoned Protel's support group and asked about it a couple of years ago, they didn't have a clue to what I was talking about. I just hope they keep it and don't "accidently" remove it.
