No, but I would be interested to help out, either coding or
testing.  I haven't yet gotten around to it by myself.

 Is there a method in PCB that allows one to measure the trace length so 
 that signals can be phase matched if needed? If not, this would be a 
 nice feature.

Put the cursor over the trace and type :Report(NetLength)

It tells you which net it is and the length in the message log.

Note that if the trace is not just a single path (i.e. it branches),
you get the sum of all segments on all branches.  Also, polygons
aren't supported.

It's not bound to any hotkeys, but of course you can bind it to
something with the lesstif hid's pcb-menu.res.
