Welcome!  Oh, it's quite active normally, but right now we're doing
prerelease for version 0.93, and, well, I guess it's just such a perfect
release nobody's finding any bugs whatsoever.

There has been a bug where a newly created object didn't register
keyboard shortcuts.  But for "older" objects, it should work.  We've
moved to using the Delete key recently, though.

That's not possible at the moment, though I don't think there's a really
strong reason for it.  It'll just take some fiddling with updates and a
way in the layer dialog to mark which layers are active for connection.

Which version of Dia are you using?
