Sorry, I forgot this point. Appart from the hack in gwidget.c. As for
gettext "OK" and "&OK" or "_OK" are different strings so there would be no
problem to give them different translations. Anyway, it's time consuming to
check every OK message in the code and look for side effects...

I would just try the "&Ok" -> "&OK"

Did I say I don't like the "cannot"? :(
