I was thinking it would be cool to have a wire disconnect method.
At the current time you have to select or delete the wire by finding the center point etc.

Now if there could be a hotkey, then click the node it would highlight the wire.
If multiple wires just click again to toggle to the next.

This way if you can stay centrally located at where you are patching instead of having to backtrack or trace down
another wire.

A method i like in another nodal i use for vfx, is when pressing y (but could be different) it enters the 'cut' mode, and mouse act then as a cutter, just 'drawing' accross wires, that make it really easy and fast to cut several wires (also kinda trippy^^). or when taking a node and shaking it fast it disconnect all pins

It's not just about making it easier for user. When wire is connected between input and output of same patch/module, you can no longer select the wire by it's center and can't disconnect it either.

x.iso i agree but yeah lets admit its rare case^^, the trick in such case is to re create same connection, it will remove the wire
