Description of the new feature / enhancement

(I am loving the new peek powertoy. But it is need of some dynamic and options. this is ONE of FIVE ideas:)

a. a choice to set peek's shortcut to hold only, which would mean the preview would self-close the moment the keys are released. this option would be helpful when looking though a large quantity of files, or if the person is in a hurry and can't be bothered to stop and close the preview window.

Scenario when this would be used?

It would be used as stated above, or essentially any time during the tool's operation.

Supporting information

Uh... well, if my verbal explanations aren't concise enough, let me know and I can mock up something in VS22 that demonstrates the ideas better.
