Hello,

  I find it convenient having the keystrokes M-f-<space>-<letter>
do the same thing as M-f-<letter>.

  The first sequence opens the "File" menu, shows me what <letter> to
enter to obtain a given command (it is underlined in the menu entry);
once I know it, I just do M-f-<letter>, and get the right command
immediatly. 

  It makes it easier (to me, at least) to remember the keybindings.

  Most commands on the menus are already like that. The "export" and
"view" commands, in the "File" menu are not, however. Is that the case
only for "emacs" keybindings, or for "cua" too?

  If anyone is interested, I appended a little patch for the
$LYX_DIR/lib/bind/menus.bind file.


  Cheers,


  Etienne


ps : I use 0.12.1pre5. Sorry if the issue has already been treated
here.
