No I do not find a good way to desribe it. I would say the following would just because describing behaviout is simpler: Change layer and if drawing line also add via. If via is added it is also possible to fail because of enforce DRC clearance or maybe adjust via position while finnishing line.

I consider these kind of small details for very common tasks rather important.
