Factoriopedia: Quick access to belt contents

When Alt-right-clicking an entity with items (belt, crafting machine, etc.), please add a way to quickly access the entity's contents page.

For example, if I have a belt with copper, I want to easily find the recipes that use copper.
Currently, I have to manually find copper in the menu or look for an item I know contains copper in its recipe to quickly access it.

I realized for most entities you can get to the contents/related items Factoriopedia page by opening them first:

(Alt click the gear to get to the page)

But for belts, the window is almost useless. Maybe the Transport belt window should show the contents

When the belt is moving and has different items I'm not sure how this feature should work.
