Bug Description

It would be very useful if net entry were to automatically terminate if the user finished a segment on a pin.

Currently, connecting components always involves 3 mouse clicks. Click 1 begins the net at component A, click 2 places a segment marker at component B, and finally click 3 is a right click to terminate adding another net segment. I find this procedure overly long when connecting a large number of components. If the segment were to complete automatically when landing on a pin 1/3 of the mouse clicks could be saved.

Hello,

For me if shift is hold while click on component B net drawing could be terminated, but only if shift has nothing to do with starting drawing then simply holding shift while drawing few point-to-point connections will be sufficient to save 1/3 clicks.
