There was a hotkey conflict between "SFTP link" and "Filter": "F" was used in both items[1].

Change of hotkey for "Filter" was impossible, because all letters "ilter" are used
in this menu. From the other hand, almost all letters "stplink" are used too.
Only "k" is free. "o" in "Sort order" was free too.

Hotkeys are defined in the source code and cannot be changed via any configuration
options.

Only "k" can be used for that.
