Build improvements (Hotbar, rmb = remove,...)

(I would like to see this in the real game, but some good mod-maker could probably do this already *hint hint*.)

I think building in Rimworld in way too finicky, flipping through different menus & searching for wherever menu that thing I want to build is, and so on...

Instead I would like a "hotbar" (like Minecraft or Factorio), where I set up like a "custom menu" so I have instant access to whatever I need, between 1 to 9 (or 1 to zero?).

So for example, I want to build a kitchen setup:
[1=(granite)Walls] [2=(wood)Door] [3=Chair] [4=Stove] [5=ButcherTable] [6=(Food)Stockpile] [...] [...] [...]

You could even set up more than 1 hotbar (up to 9 or 10?) (like Factorio)
Then use like Shift+Number to switch to the corresponding hotbar, for a total of 81 or 90 different hotbar slots.

I would also want the RMB(Right Mouse Button) to be bound to Cancel and Shift+RMB to be Deconstruct, or something like that (basically the Right mouse is bound to cancel whatever is bound to the left mouse button, being  it a: building, stockpile, planning tool, allowed area, roof area, ...)

I hope I can see these features soon.
So many ideas... so little time...
Silence is the worst answer.
