In spectator mode, we need to hold that button to activate it, which is really annoying.
I think it should work like F1 / F3 / F5 or "Cinematic Camera".

Gimlao, generally speaking, if you aren't certain whether a function is intended to work a certain way, consult with external sources, such as Minecraft Wiki, the Minecraft forums, the Mojang website (where new feature info is sometimes released), and the developers Twitter posts. If at that point you find something conflicting, you can easily make a report and backup the issue. For one like this, no documentation has surfaced here to support that this functionality is incorrect. Furthermore, phrasing things like "I think it should work like" tells us that you are making a request (hence the feature request comment). If at some point in the future, you find information to support this report, feel free to make a comment and it may be re-opened. It is greatly appreciated that you took the time to report, and you are encouraged to do research in the future for more reports.
