Quick Drop Insert with the <Enter> Key

[JLS]

If a wire is selected and one engages quick drop, it would be nice if the default behavior for pressing the <enter> key was to insert (vs placing the VI on your mouse).  This would be faster than CTRL+I, especially given that on some keyboards CTRL+I requires two hands (within reason :).

Speaking purely as a user of LabVIEW, not as a member of R&D: My own thought is that I would get accidental inserts all the time with this approach. I like that QD always does the same thing regardless of what mode the rest of my diagram is in without keys changing behavior depending upon what I just did on the diagram. If I'm going to do an insert, I consciously select a wire and then I acknowledge that my selection is conscious by hitting ctrl+i. If I was just wanting to drop another node, I'm not even really thinking about whether or not I have a wire selected, and I'm not sure I would like QD to assume that having that wire selected was intentional.

As a member of R&D: This is a change we could definitely make if other users think it is a good idea.
