Here's what I've been doing, and I find it very unobtrusive.  I create a 
new node where I want it, using the usual <CTRL>-I.  Of course, I type in 
the node's name as usual. Then <ALT>-F8, <ALT>-F7.  I hardly notice I'm 
doing it.  It would be easy to combine all three of these commands in a 
single keystroke, but so far I haven't felt the need.
