Toggle connector snapping when moving a Transformer

The ability to snap a transformer onto an existing connector when moving it 'can' be useful, but can often cause problems - and lots of CTRL-Z frustration.

With the complex corporate workspaces we deal with on a daily basis, it is all too easy to inadvertently make incorrect connections.

This could be solved with a menu button to toggle this on or off and/or a context menu option on the transformers themselves.
