As a workaround you can use the Upgrade function in the Draft Workbench with your existing wire selected first.

I have it in several versions of 0.20.xxxxx, but not in 0.19.

However, it is available in the customize options if someone wants to add it to the Part toolbar.

Looking forward to see it in 0.19.3 ;)

Why that one and only that one?

I see about 70 options available with only about half of those included in the standard toolbar.

Because that's the only PR since 0.19 that could have made it work in 0.20.
