Transform points in Curvature tool.

While smoothing points in curvature tool I find myself needing to move the points around as well. I think adding a Transform ( or Magnet ) type of point movement would speed up workflow. Maybe revise the current curvature tool to become a Transform tool when clicked or hovered over active point.

While using the Curvature tool, press-and-hold X to temporarily activate the Magnet tool. When you want to switch back to Curvature, just release the X key.

BTW, this works with almost any of the standard tool shortcut: just press-and-hold.

IMO, switching to the Transform Points tool this way is too slow. It's better to just tap T to fully switch tools and then tap C to switch back to Curvature. But I think the Magnet tool (X) seems more responsive to the press-and-hold trick.
