Wrong. Another trick is pressing '-' and '+' to decrement
and increment the alpha. Using this you can see that
the pp considers the two squares on the right as two subshapes,
which overlap thus giving different saturation in the center
then on the borders (where there's no overlap).

Yes, I had a fix for this yesterday, temporarely freezed since we
found the m_new_shape bug. I'm reconsidering the patch after 
the fix. Automatic closing fille shapes on move fixed both cases.

I'd like to commit the patch fixing the 'four-in-a-row' and 'opposite-el'
drawing first, unless you think the Ming test can reveal we don't necessarely
need to close those paths..

Feel free to give Ming a try yourself meanwhile :)
