Description

Describe the bug
If my description bothers you, I feel sorry. My English is poor. :>
It seems that LinkHints.activateMode action=hover key mapping is implemented by activating mouseover event, but this cannot be used on some components with mouseenter event bound.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to URL 'https://www.bilibili.com' and login
  2. Mouse hover on '动态' on the top-right side of the page.
  3. A list appear.
  4. Use the mapping key (in my case I have mapped Fh to LinkHints.activateMode action=hover) to hover on '动态', and the list does not appear.

Browser and Vimium version
Microsoft Edge
Vimium version 1.67

Research direction

Start by tracing the LinkHints.activateMode action=hover mapping and compare the mouseover event it activates with the mouseenter behavior described in the report. Reproduce the problem on bilibili.com using the reported mapping; done means hover activation makes the list under “动态” appear on components bound to mouseenter.
