How to put a tikz node on the rounded corner?

I am interested in the line-to operation |- (or -| ) with rounded corner. Now, I would like to add a node on the rounded corner. But the node then appears note on the rounded corner --it is rather on the `original corner'. How to force this node to be on the line?



Here is an MWE



documentclass{article}
usepackage{tikz}

begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
draw (0,0)|-node{mid}(2,3);
end{tikzpicture}
begin{tikzpicture}
draw [rounded corners=1cm] (0,0)|-node{mid}(2,3);
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}


This gives the output



enter image description here



I know it can be done with to and also with controls (though I couldn't get the desired result without a bit of tweaking)



I feel tweaking is not the right thing to do. It is like doing paint in tikz; if we are doing tweaking, why not draw on a WYSIWYG drawing software or geometry software and export?



So, my question is
Is there any way to put a node exactly on a rounded corner?

(preferably without using to or controls; but if you can do them in a rather neat way, you are more than welcome)



Oh, I almost forgot. Just being curious, is there a name for this |- or -| operation?



Thank you
