Regarding Home/End keynav for gtkoptionmenu, earlier I had a discussion 
with Calum. If I understood it correctly, he was also OK with having 
Home/End keynav for all kinds manus. The only concern he raised was
about
the ability to have Home/End dynamic key assignment for the menus. 

Please have a look at the mail:
