Default XCSoar and Wind

with pre 6.8 I simply unselected the "use external wind" whenever I wanted the set the wind manually. It worked well. I am hoping there is a way to achieve the same in 6.8 - having the ability to easily switch between external to manual wind. Without this I am better off with 6.7.

This reminds me of sitting around listening to Airbus and Boeing pilots debate the flight laws of their software. It's not as entertaining though when I think about how opaque some parts of flying have become with the introduction of automation.
