What you've described sounds a bit like the graph editor at http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/grapher/ . It worked in all five browsers in 2009, but some of them seem to have been intent on making sure this remains no longer the case, I think. You could also use parts of SVG edit (which google) since it has path editing capabilities. Then there is the Wisemapping project from Argentina, that allows a lot of diversity in the set of nodes and links that are assembled.
All three are open source, I believe. Also D3 is a pretty powerful library with a module that understands connectivity (in the graph theoretic sense) and is able to translate that into force attractors. That could be of some help. You might want to read up on Doug Schepers connectors proposal for SVG - the connectivity discussed there is logical rather than physical, but it seems likely to become a part of the future spec so developing in accordance with it would make some sense.

Specifically: 1: I should be able to connect multiple lines to each other making angles and stick figures. Shape and line combination ( like circle linked to st. line tangent) 2: Should be able to connect / reconnect them at different edit points on the shapes/lines. 3: Keep them connected when on one of the connected partner is moved. Please let me resources/code or library which will help me to accomplish such task.
