Another possibility would be that one clicks on the building spot and is able to press a hotkey combination which places the building.... Those hotkeys could also be configurable.

Maybe this feature would be even better if it would be enough to mouse over the building spot.

Sorry for being late on this discussion, but i think this new feature has some flaws:

  1. This option is somehow hidden for a player because its in "Options→Edit keyboard ... actions→Fastplace"
  2. widelands was always known as a "slow-paced" game, but this option makes it more like a "Who knows the tools to speed up gaming will likely win the game" game
  3. It lacks handling for people who don't like shortcuts
  4. It is not much explained
