That's the problem, this doesn't actually do anything for QuitMenuItem.
For the hide menu item, I don't even know if MacOS X allows you to
change it.
It does, but RB rebuilds menus behind your back so if you use a
declare to change'm, the RB framework changes them back when you
actually try to use them.
An odd thing I did notice, is if you create a couple stub menus that
use Cmd-Q and Cmd-H then those shortcuts won't be available to the
real Quit/Hide menus. You can toggle the visibility of those stubs to
toggle the shortcuts on the real menus, but if you hit Cmd-H while
the stubs are visible the real Hide menu looses its key combo for
good. This doesn't happen for Quit as long as you have a QuitMenuItem
defined however.
The more I look at this the more I think the only way it can work is
if RS does two things:
1. Allow KeyboardShortcut to be changed for QuitMenuItem and
PrefsMenuItem (this may be a legitimate bug already).
2. Add HideMenuItem and HideOthersMenuItem subclasses - maybe even
ShowAllMenuItem for completeness.
I know what I'm trying to do goes against the almighty HIG but there
are good reasons for needing this functionality - games and kiosks,
come immediately to mind.
I'll write up a report later tonight...
