(Just for the sake of completness, in case someone else actually gives it a
thought.)
For non-English (Latin, or otherwise) users, even more important and
frequently used action shortcuts (Ctrl combos) haven't got any mnemonic
meaning. So I see no reason to insist on it for Alt-accelerators in
dialogs, especially since these are used at any capacity only by more apt
users (sanity checks welcome :)
