Eraser tool for texture painting

Currently there is no eraser tool for texture painting.

If you draw on an image with an alpha channel(transparency) in texture paint mode, you have to use brush tool with erase alpha blending mode to get the eraser function. This is not intuitive nor beginner-friendly.

We need a separate eraser tool apart from the brush tool in texture paint mode. It could paint with background color if the image is RGB instead of RGBA.

As an painter, brush and eraser are tools that I have to continuously interchange on a painting study. To open menu and click erase Alpha is pretty slow down my workflow. In my opinion, there is no need Erase Alpha to be a new tool. It would be great to be able to just assign a shortcut. But "Add to Quick Favorites" options is not available for this menu.
