Magic pen tool?

Wouldn't it be great to have a 'magic pen' in iLiad, making it easy to underline/highlight text in documents? You just roughly mark the text, and the pen neatly underlines, or highlights the text. This would solve my itch, that when I'm in a bus/train/car/something moving, trying to underline something, the bus/train/car/something moving bumps and the line goes through the text, or through the wrong text. If this is difficult to implement, it would help if there would be a 'line tool', where you point the beginning and ending of the line, and the line is drawn in between.

Analogously to how the Kindle highlights text (Obviously, this would only work for vector text, and not for image text).
