“Replace” item to the context menu

The idea is: Add “Replace” item to the context menu

My use case: Often you have to put a node in place of some node, but this breaks all the links .You have to re-configure them. A button “replace node with another” would solve this problem.

I think it would be beneficial to add this because: It’s much more convenient to replace a node in workflow than: delete a node and then manually restore all connections.

“Replace Me” feels like it implies that’s the primary action to be taken with that phantom node:

I think it would be great to have this UI appear:

I also think that the “done” path should be more visually appealing with an path that isn’t also pointed at the “Replace Me” node:

It’s not necessarily about the “Replace ME” node in the “Loop” node. Replace any node with any other node, preserving the location and connections. The context menu opens first, and then the desired node is selected.
