Bring back the Rectangle Tool.

When the beta for Roll20 initially came out, I was overjoyed to find that there was a rectangle tool which aided me in creating a cityscape. So, you can imagine my facial expression when I went back to make more parts of the city for my campaign of Adeptus Evangelion only to be without the very tool that I required. I don't know what it was removed for a more advanced version of the draw tool, which in my opinion, is useless besides the players graffiting the game board. I would really like the rectangle tool to be brought back, or at least, be given an explanation as to why it was removed. Thank you!
I am actually planning to bring this back more or less. I'm going to break the current Alt circle drawing into a new tool that draws circles and squares (similar to how the old one drew squares). You'll still be able to hold Shift to draw straight lines with the draw tool, but you're right that drawing straight lines did not replace the square tool like I hoped it would. The square tool will now also have adjustable line widths, but it will no longer do rounded corners. Those changes are determined by the new implementation, not just my personal preference :-)
Awesome! I'm pleased to hear that it will be back and better than before. Thanks!
