Description
When adding a ship in GM it requires a button to start placing and a button to stop placing. This can lead to accidentally placed ships if we are not paying attention.
Being able to shift click until we have enough and then do a final normal click to end placement could simplify things? (on the other hand it could be annoying for many many placements)

Research direction
Start by locating the GM ship-placement controls and tracing how the current start and stop placement buttons handle clicks. Determine how shift-click placement and a final normal click should behave, then verify that repeated placements work without accidental ships and that normal placement still ends correctly.
