The package pin numbers are well defined: 1-2-3. The Symbol on the
schematic should tell which (numeric) package pin conects to which
transitor contact. There are also FETs in that package.
I'd still use slotting for this in generic symbols. I've made a quick
generic NPN symbol that demonstrates how I think generic symbols may
work.
gschem GUI may need an additional feature in the attibute editor: When
editing an attribute "NAME", it shall offer a dropdown menu of choices
given in the attibute "NAMEs" (or some other less ambiguous mangling of
NAME).
