My most common usage of JOSM is for adding new nodes, segments and ways,
or refine existing ways.
For entering new road, I place nodes then segments and almost everytime
I'm moving nodes to adjust the road. Now I need two more clic.
For refining existing road, I was used to :
1) select the "add node to segment" tool
2) add nodes
3) select the "move" tool
4) place the newly added nodes to their position
Now I have to do more clic to unselect things prior to move nodes.
Well... What is needed is a patch for #264 trac ticket ;)
