Summary

Yet Another Hints Extension allows you to click elements without using your mouse. Pressing Ctrl+m generates hints for each clickable element in the current view. Each hint has a character code. When you type a code, a hint gets highlighted, and you can "click" the corresponding element by pressing the return key. You can also add ctrl, shift, alt and meta modifiers when you press return to simulate ctrl+click and so on.

You can customize the keybinding and hint characters in the extension's options page.

After you hit the hint, you have to hit the enter key.

Not very well illustrated, and the tip markers seem very random vs predictable. Not sure how this extension helps people.
