Research direction
Start by reviewing the analogous Brave request in issue #4800 and the existing Vimium shortcut and link-opening behavior. Determine whether Chrome exposes a split-view action that Vimium can invoke; done means a documented shortcut reliably opens the selected link in Chrome split view.
