[josm-dev] "Add nodes" functionality changed?

So far, only 4 people are complaining. Doesn't sound heavily used to me.

About shift: Try to create a perfect "T" crossing with the joining way
(" | ") ending *near* a node but not on one. Your joining way will
look something like this "\" or this "/", but you cannot make it "|"
because of snapping if you normal click. CTRL click and you have
unconnected roads.
