A rigorous inflexible data model have disadvantages, it is better to put the necessary restrictions then file is used. As is now I think gschem is useful for:
  1. ASIC.
  2. Schematics for circuit boards.
  3. Spice simulation.
  4. Interconnection of circuit boards with cables, control cabinets.
  5. VHDL?
  6. Not the least fast sketches where details could be added later.

I think about gschem as a tool to make a visual drawing of interconnections, nothing more nothing less.
