Toolkits in general doesn't choose accelerators, the programmers of

(Open/Save/Copy/Paste/...) so we can choose those to be similar.
For the record: This holds for w32 menus too.
I have to say that this thread leaves a very bad taste in my mouth.
Two reasons:
a) new feature, not to be checked in. If it is checked in, testing
and ironing out problems and possibly choosing accelerators, even
though they could possibly be provided by code in tmm-menubar and
consolidation with all platforms will cost considerable time and
effort.
b) it is rather essential functionality. I want to see this soon, at
least in basics.
We need to get our back free for working stuff like that into Emacs.
Personally, I'd say add the menus on F10 now, think about accelerators
after the release. But I realize that this is dissatisfactorily both
with catering for the feature properly, and with getting our release
out.
