This is considered a "feature," but after a lot of user confusion because of
it, I ended up discarding the item factory and hard-coded menus so I could
lock the accelerators.

As a power user, I personally like this feature, but am still constantly
accidently changing the binding.  There needs to be an easy way of locking and
unlocking accelerator bindings.
