Petition to have a separate keybind for clicking thresh's lantern (+balance change for him)

The amount of times I have (or seen other people) fail to click a lantern and instead attack someone because it's in a middle of a teamfight is waaay to high. While I do agree that thresh does need a slight nerf to keep him in check, I feel like this is necessary because the whole point of the lantern is to get your allies out of danger, and it doesn't work if you can't click on it.

Now some of you may disagree and say that thresh is too strong already, you do bring up a good point, he has all the utility a support could ask for (minus heal)+ the tankiness to go with it. But i feel like there is a better solution then to not implement this. What I do feel would be better is that they should let the enemy team be able to click on his lantern, sending it back to him and maybe giving him damage upon its return. This way, the outcome of the situation would rely solely on the skill of the players to be the first person to click, as opposed to the limitations of certain champions to get on top of the lantern first (champions with dashes>without).

It could possibly be holding down a button and clicking at the same time, which would work quite well with the balance idea above.

Thoughts?
