Actually what I was thinking of is the little "mid-segment ghost vertices" which appear when the cursor is over a line segment in GM edit mode. Dragging one of these vertices "materializes" it to become an actual vertex of the linestring. Perhaps this could be a new Line Edit tool (a la the Add Vertex tool), or it could perhaps be a quasi-mode tool on the current editing tools. I think the key is to have one tool which can both insert vertices and reposition them (I think this indicates that a new tool is required - or perhaps it becomes a new mode of the Add Vertex or the Move Vertex tools?
