Short description of error
This is not a exactly a bug but more of a visual hindrance
When using Poly build tool with an object that , for example, has a subdivision modifier and "on cage" turned on so vertices appear on their modified space, the poly build tool still highlights and snaps to original non modified geometry

Here's an example between working with "on cage" turned off VS turned on

I think poly build is a really powerful tool, and fixing this would substantially increase speed and quality of the workflow!
Also, I think this problem might appear in other tools as well, but I haven't found any case as affecting as Poly Build Tool

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Create a plane
add subdivison modifier with "on cage" toggled on so vertices appear on a modified shape
start using poly build tool with left click to drag and move vertices around
notice that highlights don't respect the "on cage" toggle, and instead appear in their original geometry location
