Keyboard shortcut for Layer Mask

Is there any way to make a keyboard shortcut for Copy Mask in a Layer? Then Paste Mask to a different layer? I've made shortcuts for Add Layer, Add Filled Layer, Refine Mask, and Invert Mask, but I can't figure out how to do Copy Mask &/or Paste mask.

Actually if Capture One is listening here's a thought.

I make a new layer and create a mask around a subject. I Fill the mask and then Refine it. Then I create a new layer, copy the mask from Layer A and then Invert it. This allows me independent control over the subject and background, and I can go back and forth between layers to fine tune things. The problem is that I have to do this by hand and I do this over and over again.

It would be nice if this could be automated into a new command, "Create new layer, import mask from layer below, invert mask" Bam it's done.

Thoughts?

  Maybe the use of a macro editor will help?
  
  For instance: https://sourceforge.net/projects/minimousemacro/

  I second this request! Wondered this myself, but maybe I could try this with a macro key on my keyboard?

  Have you tried this ?
  
  ALT-A (new layer)
  ALT
  A
  CURSOR LEFT (don't ask my why we can't use RIGHT)
  CURSOR DOWN 15 X (go to "copy mask from")
  CURSOR RIGHT (into the submenu)
  CURSOR DOWN (select the highest layer)
  ENTER
  ALT
  A
  CURSOR LEFT (don't ask my why we can't use RIGHT)
  CURSOR DOWN X (menu: invert mask, or use keyboard shortcut)
