Improve Tab Peek with Hover-Triggered Peek Icon

[anonymous_shrey]

Request: upgrade Tab Peek ergonomics. The existing Alt + click gesture is high-effort and disrupts link scanning. Introduce a passive trigger. When the pointer hovers on any link for roughly one second, surface a compact Peek icon beside the link. The icon remains visually minimal to avoid layout shift. User action: a direct click on that icon opens the Tab Peek preview. Benefits: lowers mechanical overhead, supports one-hand mouse use, improves discoverability, avoids accidental previews from simple hovering, and aligns the feature with modern glance-preview patterns.

Look at the image i've attached where on hover an icon appears and on clicking the U shaped icon , the website pops out.
