hmm..that could be kind of neat i guess..it doesn't seem to handle preexisting
keybindings very well by default though. you can end up with multiple menu
items showed as being bound to the same key but only one of them is actually
bound. (making it a bit difficult for the user to figure out what the other
item accelerator is. not to mention a bit confusing.)
