⚠ Have you searched for similar, already existing issues?
Yes! Although it is always possible that my Google-Fu has failed me.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
After selecting a destination, while the route is being built the "Routing Options Enabled" pop-down is not available. It is available once the route has finished being built, however if I know I want to change an option (like enabling tolls for this one trip), then I have to wait for the router to find a full route first, then I get the pop-down, then it builds the route again. Ideally the first route building could be interrupted.

Describe the ideal solution
The same pop-down should show while the route is being built. That way, if the user wants to define roads to avoid or enable certain roads, they don't have to wait for a route (which may even be impossible with the currently-selected roads to avoid) to be built first.

Describe alternatives you have considered
The roads to avoid could also be displayed as a bar of buttons in that area, to show which are enabled and which are not, but I think this is overkill for now (and could be difficult for translation)
