Description

I need to map zf to get link and send to one of my extensions just the same way as yf copies a link.
I figured I could use both LinkHints.activateModeToCopyLinkUrl and sendMessage commands.
How would I go about this?
Thanks in advance.

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing yf mapping and the named LinkHints.activateModeToCopyLinkUrl and sendMessage commands. Determine whether Vimium's command mapping can invoke both operations and how the URL reaches the extension; done would mean zf performs the requested link action and forwarding behavior, with a test or reproducible verification.
