I think this is a fantastic idea, though I would suggest considering 
structuring your code to be a little more open ended to allow for future 
expansion to more arbitrary join locations that ( 2 px down from top 
left, 15% right of bottom right, etc. ) at a later date.

I would also a shift-state toggle at that point allowing to adjust the 
relative location of the weld.  You might, for example, move a weld set 
and decide you need to reposition one of the boxes, it would be handy to 
be able to adjust the weld instead of break, move, re-weld.

Also love this term - not sure I've seen it before?

This seems like an "easy" extension to the existing grouping behavior, 
though I admit I have used it very, very little.
