Bug Description
In recent unstables the tool behaviour changed for some reasons; before:
- Moved the mouse to the desired point
- Push the shortcut key and it did the thing (i.e. Q for a no connect, W started a wire...)
Now after pushing the shortcut you *also* need to click the mouse to do the operation. This is almost silly for the A (add part) where you need to push A, then click somewhere to open the chooser and at last place the component.
Nothing wrong with this, only an usability concern.

The first click selects the tool; the second click does an operation.
We'll also have "immediate" operations which will do the old behaviour. It will be up to the user to decide which to assign the shortcut-key to.
