Having seen your example (sent directly off list), I'm convinced about the usefulness of the inside and outside idea (when used on the inner-most or outer-most track). Still not sure about those names as I would also like to support this on the linear diagrams as well.

Linear and Circular are similar but not identical. No problem with having a above|below|strand or a more complex anchoring scheme but I don't need it right now so I'm just playing with the circular one.

I've attached a PDF to this mail - it might get through and I'll try to fork/clone/push git.
