Disconnect wire from last entity by clicking RMB

[Neotix]

Right now when we want to connect entities A,B,C,D, we just take wire, click LMB on A, then on B, C and D, and it's great.
But when we want to connect A with B and C with D, then we have to grab wire click LMB on A, then on B, press Q (wire go back to inventory), grab wire again and click LMB on C and D.
With many entities it's very inconvenient.

My proposition is to add RMB while holding wire to disconnect it from last entity.
So when we want to connect A-B and C-D then we grab wire, click LMB on A, then on B, RMR to disconnect holding wire from B, and LMB on C and D.
It just skip that requirement to pressing Q and taking wire from inventory every time.

It will be very useful!

Actually in 0.13 you can use Q (clear cursor).

From the changelog:
- Clear cursor first cancels the current action (rail building, wire dragging), and only removes the item from the cursor when pressed again.

Does this also work with blueprint creation / deconstruction planner? Right now when you notice you started wrong and press Q the deconstruction planner goes back to the inventory and you need to select it again. It would be nice if it also only cancels the current action there.

This has changed with one of the last updates. I randomly stumbled 3 days ago over this new feature.

Select blueprint, shit, one tile too much, pressing Q. Uh? I don't loose the blueprint? Cool.

Just tested with 0.12.33.
If I press Q while dragging the blueprint/deconstruction planner it puts it in my toolbelt/inventory, instead of cancelling the action and keeping it in the hand.

You probably mean that after releasing the blueprint, you can press E on the Blueprint icon setup dialog, then the window closes and you still have the empty blueprint in hand.

Hm. Indeed. I mixed that up. I'm stupid.

Rseding91 just added blueprint cancelling with Q to 0.13
