I've never understood the motivation for the SPICE netlist backends to use 
pinseq= at all.  Is this just a hack to get the unslotted pinnumber?  Or 
is there some other mechanism involved?

(If it's just about the unslotted pinnumber, this is easily solved using 
the refactored netlister--instead of cpin.number, use 
cpin.blueprint.get_attribute('pinnumber') which doesn't consider 
slotting.)
