Thanks everyone!
Shift + control + 45 deg angle drag does most of the trick, ( I had preferred this to be a default behaviour. when i select a circle tool) And the other options i'm also looking into.
Works great, and i'll keep it in mind for many circles to come

Hold down the SHIFT while drawing the circle. This allows you to draw the half-diagonal rather than the full diagonal. I know of no way to draw from centre to radius or to just draw the diameter. There is no circle drawing tool, just an oval drawing one. ☹
As far as I know, the underlying SVG notation just has cubic splines, not circles. This would mean all things that look like circles aren't exact, though they may look round.
If I'm wrong, I'd be happy to be corrected.

Almost the same response of Tav, but adding the Alt Key. Yo can try Mays (to begin creating the circle from the center) + Ctrl (to maintain the aspect ratio) + Alt (to draw the circle to the perimeter, rather than to the bounding box) while drag at a 45º angle. At least works for me =)
