 Adding a node in an existing way is probably a high-likelihood activity.
 Yet at present it is non-discoverable, requiring a keyboard shortcut
 (Shift).

 This non-discoverability is made worse because, when a way is selected,
 and Shift pressed, no indication is given of this, e.g. a half-shaded
 'ghost' point (that roughly follows the mouse position) or something like
 that.

 As there is no current action assigned to assigning double-click while
 mouseovering an existing line, adding this while retaining the current
 Shift-click behaviour may be possible.
