I don't think that's a good solution. I would rather implement a different behaviour for the case where the user is changing an already created rectangle. If the user is creating a new rectangle, pressing Shift and Ctrl while the mouse button is down should activate "square" mode, respective "from center". And, and that's important, releasing the modifier keys should untoggle it. Only then can the user discover this functionality without the risk of doing something unwanted. As soon as the rectangle is created, it's mode should not any longer be toggleable using the modifier keys. The user can still change it by pressing the check boxes in the tool options but it is rather unlikely that one ever wants to turn a circle into an ellipse or change the "from center" mode.
