Hot Key for Start/Pause Live View

Currently working in a high volume Ecomm studio where we use live view quite frequently. We're constantly having to turn live view off and on for the stylist and photographers which requires us to navigate back and forth between different tabs. Since the photographers focus manually, live view wont allow them to zoom in to see if they are sharp on the subject which is why we are always Starting/Pausing it. It would just be easier if there was a hot key to start/pause so we don't have to keep jumping back and forth and additionally it would save a little bit of time/headache.

Current workaround

Jumping between the different tabs

    Hi Doug, thanks for the feedback - this is already possible today, you can set your own shortcuts to toggle the Live view on/off and to start/pause it.
