There is one little problem with this technique though. The DRC
passes OK, but "unconnected pads" complain about the pads not being
connected. Twice for every pin-number.
That's what I warned you about. Kicad doesn't assume that two pads with the same pad number are connected (even if they overlap) unless you connect them with a track or zone. I don't think you could do it with a track, but maybe if you placed a tiny zone over the two pads that share the same centre that would do the trick.
Regards,
Robert.
