Niiiiice! I've wanted this for ages, thank you so much!

Can I make a minor feature request? It'd be really nice if I could set
the color and style before placing lines, so I can place arbitrarily
many without having to change the style for each segment. Some editors
do this by adding a style dropdown to the toolbar button (and displaying
the selected style on the button). I can't remember how hard wx makes it
to add dropdowns to toolbar buttons, but this sounds like a nice way to
do it.
