I personally think the whole concept is broken of having letters underlined in
menu items to denote which key you need to press with alt. And the underlines
look really ugly - the Macintosh doesn't have them at all and looks much
better.
Is there really no better way of invoking menu items from the keyboard than by
using alt + 'a fairly random character' ?
