--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
Actually, it is a UX consistency and accessibility issue.

The hard coded menus have tilde "~", the .UI based menus and dialogs use
underscore "_" to assign the key assigned as an accelerator--and that need to
be announced in assistive technology interfaces.

So, the underline could be removed--especially if there is no action actually
assigned to the accelerator, but that would not result in the UI/UX that is
needed.

Consistent accelerators on menus and for button dialogs are fundamental to
providing accessibility support.

Ideally every menu item should have an accelerator assigned, and to extent
possible every button widget should have an accelerator so that the UI can be
used efficiently without use of a mouse or with a dependency on a visual
display.

Some would be global, some would be contextual to the dialog or panel that is
active. Either way there are a lot within the UI that still need to be
implemented.
