It's true that any unmodified character (at least, those I tested -- but not 
just R) or Ctrl+char will toggle the enabled item.  I can't confirm the Linux 
behavior with the Meta modifier, but under Windows, Alt+R (which is the expected 
accelerator) activates the button and runs the filter.

Do the other button accelerators (e.g. M-U or M-D) work as expected?
