I think you need to turn on the all-direction-lines to get anything 
useful out from the INS tool. I am not sure it can do 45 deg in 
non-all-dir-lines mode.

I am not sure how this works with current mainline.

My plans on this with pcb-rnd is that I want to decouple insert from move: 
an insert should only insert a point, and should not start any other 
operation implicilty. Sometimes I just want a point to snap other things 
to. It'd also bypass the all-direction-lines problem mentioned above.
