An easier solution is to simply find the relevant path in the path dialog, right click it, and select "Path Tool" from the context menu:

To get the effect of connecting 1 and 3, create a new path, make the paths visible in the path dialog(just like in layer dialog), merge visible paths. Then all the visible paths are merged into one path.

In path edit mode we can add another node by Ctrl + left-click on the location we want it to be.



Note that this will convert the straight line to a curve. To make it straight lines again we have to drag the node's handles onto the node.
