"Ghosts" of fortifications for easier rebuilding after destruction

Some placements of structures are hard to rebuild in the heat of battle when its been destroyed. Often times it requires an engineer to stand up entirely to build it. Other times a certain angle is needed, or even structures placed after it are “blocking” its construction, even though it was fine just a moment before. A prime example of this is when windows are turned into a “bunkered” position. The first sandbag is placed on the windowframe, leaving a small gap at the top to shoot from, and a second sandbag placed almost directly behind on the floor. This gives a height boost to use the gap to shoot from. In addition, if a grenade Rolls through the gap, it often will land between the sandbag walls, destroying them, but saving the infantry within. However, quite often an explosion outside or an enemy deconstructing them will break the outer one, and when you attempt to replace it, it says it is blocked. If the “ghost” was left there, it should have the option to be placed there again with just the supplies cost. Saving valuable time without suffering from hurried placement. If the player that owns the “ghosted” fortification choses, they can remove ghost as well so it doesn’t interfere with new building.
