Fast models placement (CTRL + Click) ?

Hi Kenney,

Have been experimenting a lot with the new version of Asset Forge 2. Looks very promising so far and found much more functions than released in the first initial version. One of the new functionsi like most is multiple select + group models as one whole. 

There are two methods to multiple select: 

1. Semi-auto while holding SHIFT + Click tile
2. Automatic while holding CTRL + Click & move cursor

While making terrain and using a lot of the same 'floor level' blocks (for example sand, grass, etc.) there's an option to place multiple clones of the selected model: SHIFT + Click by semi-clicking each block.

Would it be possible to add the "CTRL + Click" behaviour as while placing new models on the grid? Currently there's nothing special going on while holding "CTRL" and placing models. It would be nice if we could click once while having the model selected, and hover all grid tiles where we want this object to be placed. Of course there should be some kind of 'security' making sure there won't be placed 10 models on the same grid tile without the user knowing, but i'm sure you will cover all of that if this idea passes!

Please let me know if there's any interest for adding this feature or if this won't be added at all to Asset Forge. Keep up the good work, very excited to pick-up my old projects again because of this release!
