Hot key, or toolbar button? (I'm assuming that a "hot key" is a key you type on the keyboard, not a toolbar button.)

But to start capture, it has to be
known on which interface to start capturing (because a system can have
several interfaces). This is probably why there is no hot-key to start
a capture.

There is a "start capture" toolbar button; it starts a capture on the default interface.
