That's how I use it though; I put the mark off to the side and setup a
dispersion area, so as I add to the schematic and import it, parts
show up off to the side where I can grab them for placement.

Using the crosshair means an extra click (at least, possibly after
panning) after selecting the menu option, and center doesn't let you
change the location.

No thank you.
