It has been suggested to allow a move directly after inserting a node
in add mode, so you could just shift-click and drag all the time
without A and S. Hasn't been implemented yet but I guess it is likely
to come.

Agreed. I once had a patch ready that would iterate between all ways
on subsequent clicks (1st click - 1st way selected, another click
selectes 2nd way and so on). But the main problem is in my eyes not
*selecting* the way but instead somehow making visible that there
*are* multiple ways - currently it's a matter of guessing.

Bye
Frederik
