Using (Fn) or (Right Ctrl) as toggle hotkey #37

Could we have a way to use (Fn) or (Right Ctrl) as the toggle hotkey?

Currently: Fn - is not recognized as a key press by MicMute Right Ctrl - cannot be distinguished from Left Ctrl; and if setting Control as the key, commands like Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, etc. will no longer work.

I suppose one approach would be to not suppress the Control key, so that commands like Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C still work.

Another approach would be distinguishing (Left Ctrl) from (Right Ctrl). Then it doesn't matter if one is suppressed as the other would still work fine for shortcuts.

More generally: I was looking for a single key near the bottom of the keyboard that could be used to toggle the mic without causing a lot of other issues. I've been using (Pause) which works fine but is near the top of the keyboard so less ideal. (Fn) or (Right Ctrl) would be perfect but I'm open to others if better.
