Script to align the segments of multiple edges neatly

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It is very tedious to arrange the segments of multiple edges to create a neat appearance. Every segment has to be dragged manually.

Further, when multiple orthogonal/horizontal/vertical edges are converging on a common point on a node, it is virtually impossible to snap them into one line. In such case, the segments have a slight lateral offset, which looks ugly.

In the following illustration, I have deliberately not used the snap points of nodes (shapes). As a result-

1. The horizontal segments of the blue and red edges do not align with each other.
2. The vertical segments of the blue and red edges do not align perfectly.

A similar difficulty arises when we want to lay out multiple edges with parallel and equidistant segments (drawn like an electrical bus bar).

Describe the solution you'd like I asked ChatGPT, which generated a JavaScript to achieve these alignments (see attached file). segment-layout-plugin.js

But I am unable to run the script. It would be great if this functionality is provided by default.
