  Eagle lets you do just about everything possible if you want to, you 
just have to read the instructions beyond the point of being able to do 
a most boards, which is where most everyone stops reading them.  Try 
holding down the control key, and start routing from the middle of a 
completed trace for a new path.  Then rip up the old section.  Not 
positive that's even exactly what you were talking about from your 
description, but you can always route from anywhere.
  In general it's so easy to split and move the traces that I rarely do 
that, just moving them around as needed, or do a split and rip up one 
section at a time only back to the split..

  Haven't needed a thermal etc in a long time, but little doubt there is 
a way to rip just the areas wanted as well.
