I am trying to add a PCB mount spade terminal (Keystone part, similar to 
1287) as an Eagle component.

Ideally I'd like two pads with a really thick PCB trace on either the 
top or the bottom layer.

Laying out the two pads (called A and B in my package design) is easy. 
Drawing the symbol means I need two pins, which is also easy.  I called 
one P and one P@1.  This SEEMS to be the trick to tell Eagle they are 
the same pin.

However, when I place it, they are not connected on the PCB.  If I 
change the pins from passive to power, they are.  However, it seems that 
all the P@1 pins are connected together then, which is REALLY not what I 
want -- it appears it is renaming the net it connects to as "P".

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
--Michael
