Keybinds: Modifiers for buttons: Long press, short press, holding

There were already some wishlist threads about having VoIP on the proper radio buttosn seperated from the radio menu by short press vs hold. this is an obviously good idea, but maybe ED could take it one step further and add duration modifiers to the keybinds, where you can assign a key to a function and then specify if any duration would trigger (default) or if the key only registers on short press, on long press, or only when holding.
This could be used for VoIP, but for so many other functions. For example you could use it to prevent accidenticaly trigger a critical function by assigning it to "long" press. Useful for "Gear down" and similar bindings. Or save real estate to assign a two-way function to only one button seperated with short/long: NV Goggles On: N (long), NV Goggles Off: N (short).

There have been discussions about implementing VoIP on separate radio buttons through short press vs. hold in the wishlist threads. This idea holds merit, and it would be beneficial for ED to take it a step further by introducing duration modifiers to key binds. This would allow assigning a key to a function with options for triggering on short press, long press, or only while holding. This feature could enhance VoIP functionality and be applied to various other functions. For instance, it could prevent accidental activation of critical functions by assigning them to a "long" press, such as "Gear down." This approach could optimize button allocation and streamline operations. While unrelated to the printing press, this feature request focuses on expanding functionality within the sim.
