Another solution is to handle the key-press-event signal and manually

existing one.
it would be hard to come up with a hackier accelerator system than the one builtin to GTK.
my application (ardour.org) has had other issues with the accel system and because of the byzantine complexity of key press handling in GTK itself, we are slowly replacing the whole thing with our own much simpler system.
