Please let me know where one could request it then ;)

I tested that, but unfortunately it doesn't work.

On my system, accelerator overriding works with any bindings but Perl. So I
get a small Python script that is supposed to activate this feature. When using

settings.set_property('gtk-can-change-accels', 1)

Everything works as expected. But if I change this line to:

gtk.rc_parse_string("gtk-can-change-accels = 1\n")

It stopped working. So it looks like parsing the property is not supposed to
work.

If you have any other idea of workarounds, I'll be more than happy to test them
again.

Cheers,

Tian.
