Research direction

Start with Discussion #686 and locate the existing mouse trigger-key handling; the issue does not name a file or test. Confirm how mouse button 5 and other mouse buttons are represented, then verify that configurable buttons trigger Loop while existing trigger keys continue to work.

I am using bettermouse, which occupies most of my mousekeys, I'd love to set eg. Mouse Button 5 to trigger Loop.

The app is so polished and lovely to use that I had to put in this feedback, instead of going back to Rectangle or whatever. ❤️
