Yes this mmb behavior of blender is much less effective, especially with rotation. Blender should be able to first select/lock axis depend on the view before you move and not after. I mean it mostly covered by the [ADDON] Advanced Transform. But i would like to create my own tool using pie menu editor, for example to customize the rotation step angle(not sure if possible). And of course possibility to create other tools based on this feature inside pie menu editor( since it is much more then only pie creator 
)
