Yeah, this is indeed the case. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to work around this problem in 1.4.0.
The possible workaround is to change the menu keybindings to match / not conflict with the Emacs keybindings when user switches the main GNOME setting... It's a bit nasty but I don't think we have much choice. (Also, we'd happily accept a patch that does this, right now no-one is working it AFAIK.)
