IMHO there is no reason to reinvent the wheel here. The solution should be
copied from a CAD software.
- the click will start drawing the line. Line will follow mouse movement.
Another click draws another point, and so on..
- right click ends and accepts the drawing
- doubleclick will close the polyline
- Esc will abort the drawing (and there is always undo)
This way one can draw a single line, polyline or a polygon from the same
action.
- so for predefined shapes it is the same click-and-click (maybe and
click-and-drag)


@Nate btw, current icon for polygon is totally misleading since it is
suggesting drawing an open line for a (closed) polygon.
I was trying Enter, Space, RMB, doubleclick, even Escape to finish the line
xDDD
Also the word polygon is not so common in my language, I also forgot it was
closed shape.
