Summary: Add net segment should stop when landing on a pin

Initial Comment:
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.
