There is no '_' in the menu label because there is an explicit
accelerator, <F9>.  There should not be an underscore in the
translation.  Search and Replace will need one.  Possibly renamed to
'_Find and Replace' ?

These are the sorts of translations that really require reading the
source or running the application.  It is unwieldy to list all other
items in the same menu in a comment for each item.
