[Qgis-user] Double line Feature

 If I understand you correctly, you just want to symbolize an existing 
 LINESTRING feature with double lines. You don't want to add additional 
 parallel features, correct?

 If you look at the new symbology engine, you can stack multiple lines 
 upon each other. F.e. you can create a thick black line and add a tinner 
 white or yellow line on top of each other. This way you symbolize line 
 features and they appear as a double line. You can also create two lines 
 and offset them from the center.

 For snapping, the center of the line will be used.

 Is it this that you are looking for?
