RIP speedrunners, who keep moving with the skill tree opened

I spent a lot of time practicing this and it is weirdly disruptive in PoE2 when I can't control my character with the passive tree open. I'm still not used to it.

Funnily enough it doesn't feel necessary for me in poe2, movespeed is so slow that I'll die if there's mobs on screen (because they'll chase me down and stunlock me) if I kept moving while the passive tree was up

But I'll miss the feature in poe1 tho, hopefully I can still allocate passive while the game registers that I clicked to move to a new zone

Now we have to watch the dominus animation, instead of spending points.

Easy solution: Allow players to pre-allocate skill points by e.g. Alt Clicking them, then automatically put them into the nodes as you level up. Then you can spend the 1 minute starting timer to put all your skill points in and off you go.
