Comment:

 Replying to [comment:5 strk]:

 > Next step would be algorithmically: how to find out if the constraint
 gets broken by a movement ?

 A night over it and here's the answer: form a polygon merging old and new
 edge, if the polygon contains any node then the movement broke the
 constraint. Corner case: a closed edge changing winding (must be treated
 specially)

 I can do it for 2.0 !
