Toggle Highlighting needs rework. Please allow complete hide of items.

Currently, pressing the "Toggle Highlighting" key does not completely hide all items. Instead, dropped items show for 5-10 seconds (my estimate) before disappearing. This is very problematic. Because so much loot can drop that it can seriously clutter the screen and cause player harm from monsters. No joke, one of the strongest "enemies" in this game is items. This is particularly bad in Harbinger encounters (which is my favourite league mechanic at the moment). And 5-10 seconds is a long time in an ARPG, not to mention it's constantly happening. And before anyone asks, yes I'm using an item filter. This has nothing to do with item filters; every item showing is one I want to pick up.

So please allow "Toggle Highlighting" to actually hide all items. In EVERY other ARPG I've played, they do this. That's Last Epoch, D2 Resurrected, Grim Dawn, Titan Quest, and even Torchlight. There's obviously very good reason their toggle highlighting functions this way.

There's literally zero downside to implementing this in game. And you will be helping so many players. For those who want a 5-10 second show window, you can simply put this in the settings.

I also should add: this is also in POE2, and should change there as well.
