Dynamic locations/points [message #875133]

I have a Shape A connected to Shape B by a FreeFormConnection with 2 bend points, each below the Shape, so, it looks like the ManhattenConnection...

Now, if I move Shape A, then, the bend point below it must be moved with it automatically. I have disabled bend points to be moveable (returning null for getMoveBendpointFeature)...
How do I achieve this? Is there a way to define a "dynamic location/point"? (Location/Point of bend point auotmatically moves by a specific x/y offset whenever the source/target anchor is moved, for example)

There's no automatism here. You will need to modify/correct the coordinates
of the bendpoint in the move feature of your shape.

Thanks for the hint!

I just debugged into the DefaultMoveShapeFeature which has some methods I would like to re-use, e.g. calculateConnectedConnections...
Any intentions to mark those re-usable methods protected/public?
