Delete mode is really for very special tasks only. But just mapping D to
building tools is a bit drastic in my opinion.

What we could do to discourage the use: Make the mode hidden by default
(also in expert mode) and put a delete button in the toolbar instead
(corresponds to Edit > Delete, "del" key).
