I used Vimium recently and was fascinated about its 'link hunt mode' feature. I wonder if there exists any tool like it in Windows such that pressing F would auto-assign a key combination for all UI components (checkbox, textbox, dropdown list, etc.) on a Windows form and then pressing that key combination would focus the corresponding UI element.

The LabelControl AutoHotkey script can overlay buttons, controls, and other interface elements with a number. You can access the interface controls at any time by inputting the number that belongs to one of them.

E.g. here is a GIF of the LabelControl AutoHotkey script with its numbers:

I haven’t tried it though.
