--- Comment #9 from Damian Hofmann <damian.hofmann at gmx.ch> ---
Going to close my old bug report. I since have found a usable workaround:

As already said by Regina Henschel (#c3), dashes are drawn from the start of
the line. If drawn, starting from the common/overlapping section, the dashes do
not overlap. But the (default) connectors palette only offers connectors with
arrows at the end. These often must be drawn the opposite direction to make the
arrow appear at the correct end.

Since reporting this bug, I discovered that connectors with arrows at the start
of the line are available, but hidden by default.

1. Go to "Tools" > "Customize..." > "Toolbars"
2. For the "Scope" pull down, select "Draw"
3. For the "Target" pull down, select "Connectors"
4. In the "Function" list, enable all the "... connector Starts with Arrow"
options

The new connector types are now available in the connectors palette. With the
additional connector types available, it's less cumbersome to control the
outcome of both the dashes and where the arrows appear. Works for me.
