Ability to drop multiple tools onto a connection

Currently if I have a connection between two tools as per the example below:

I can drag and drop a new tool on the connection between these tools to add it in:

And designer updates the connections nicely, however if I select multiple tools and try and collectively drop them inbetween, on a connection then it won't allow me to do this, and will move the connection out of the way so it doesn't cause an overlap.

Therefore as a QoL improvement it would be great if there was a multi-drop option on connections between tools.

I just realized we not only need this for drag and drop but also for pasting multiple tools in a connection!

Yes, this would be great for pasting multiple tools in addition to drag and drop.
