  Discussion was about implementing Home/End keys for navigation among
  the menuitems in gtkoptionmenu. I am facing a problem in the
implementation.
  The code for navigation among menuitems is same for other kinds of
  menus(drop-down/popup etc.) also. So Home/End navigation may affect
the 
  dynamic key shortcut assignment in other kinds of menus(User may want
to assign
  Home/End as dynamic key shortcut). 

  So is it Ok if I check for the flag which corresponds to the 
  'gtk-can-change-accels' and allow the navigation with Home/End only if
the 
  flag is not set ON.??
