Both of those work.  After using the program for 5 years, I had grown accustomed to
previous behavior which did not require selecting drag.  You could simply use the wire
tool and back trace over an existing track starting from its end, with a new track
gesture.  This used to shorten the wire.

I can live with the single G key however.
