Navigating Links and Elements:
=========================================
f Starts hint mode, highlighting all the clickable elements in the current view and
gives them, on default settings, numeric labels.
Elements and links can now be clicked by either typing the respective number
or part of their textual name/description, narrowing the selection down, or, in
case there is only one element that matches it, clicking it.
After the element has been clicked, hint mode ends.

Hint mode special keys are:
Enter/Return/<CR> Selects the first highlighted or tab selected hint.
Tab Moves focus to the next hintable item.
<LeaderKey> Default mapping is \, temporarily treats numeric input
as text input instead of hint selection input.
Escape Exits hint mode without selecting anything.

F Same as f, but items are shift left clicked instead of simply left clicked.

;{Mode} Starts extended hints mode, working just like f but with specified effects see below.

;; Focuses an element without clicking it.
;s Saves the destination of the link.
;f Focuses a frame.
;o Opens the location in the current tab.
;t Opens the location in a new tab.
;b Opens the location in a background tab.

;W Generates a windowopen prompt with the location as the URL, similar to the W key.
;y Copies the location.
;Y Copies the locations text description.

g;{Mode} Starts extended hints mode and stays there until Escape is pressed.
After a hint has been selected any previously narrowed down selection will be
reset to allow the selection of different items.

gi Focus last used input field. If there was no last used input field it will
Use the first available one. Good for search engines.
