SHIFT + drag would place-and-unlink a Symbol

Today I did a lot of maintenance on a Webflow site with a lot of pages, I’m using the Symbol feature to save designed blocks and reuse them everywhere, unlinked. So I drag the symbol and unlink it. That would be great if a SHIFT or ALT drag would unlink the symbol automatically. @thesergie this is the kind of discussion about ergonomy you usually like (:

Symbols are great for this usage. It leads to have a lot of symbols… Even some are labeled BACKUPS, very handy to store big design snippets without wasting a page. So there is a need to have folders. Further away, we can think about more compact list, or grid display with previews (like Adobe CC Libraries or DevRocket PS plugin).
