That's 'part' of my problem. The button shouldn't have multiple functions. It's
confusing.
- As in instrument to insert a textbox (the square) (text draw mode on/off)
- Indicator for being inside a textbox (textbox or shape text)
- As a button to access the shape textbox

The shape textbox 'exists' anyhow. It isn't inserted/ added. It's only
'activated'.

I know 'toying' around isn't representative for a workflow, but I have
'pressed' insert textbox multiple times while having a shape selected.
Intending to insert a new textbox. Not activating the shape textbox (which I
tend to access with double click). Similar the deselection happening when
pressing insert shape, while a shape is active.

In my world, I click Inserting a textbox button to insert a textbox
(exclusively the blue square). It's active until a textbox is draw. 

Accessing a textbox (shape/or square) should be done by double click/F2
(without further indicator).

Enabling 'Insert textbox' pressing F2 with nothing selected is also fine with
me. The 'draw textbox' button is marked active until the textbox is drawn.

This issue didn't exist (by default) in 4.4.7.2. The toolbar didn't have a
'insert textbox button at all'
