That may well work sometimes, but often the area is bounded not only by the
walls but also by say a mud-bank (a line I have already drawn), and it would
be nice to use these lines as they already define the area, rather than draw
another.

You are right that it does (at least sometimes) make sense to turn this idea
upside down and draw the mudbank line as part of the area border which is
connected in a big loop. I will consider where this would make sense.
