Description

Filtered hint is a great feature. Currently, there is an option to enable or disable filtered hint.
If there was an option to map key for this feature, it would be easier to switch between filtered hint and non-filtered hint.
Something like this:
map abc LinkHints.activateModeFilteredToOpenInNewTab

Research direction

Start by locating the existing filtered-hint toggle and the key-mapping handling for hint actions. Done means a mapping such as map abc LinkHints.activateModeFilteredToOpenInNewTab switches to filtered hint mode while preserving the existing non-filtered behavior.
