It isn't a loss for web pages but for users relying on the keyboard
(think handicapped users or netbook users without a proper mouse). And
Are you saying a website cannot use such combination as well?

ALT-T = Tools Menu (previously known as App menu)

Highlighting the Tools menu is important for a similar reason that hooking

I'm not sure about accesskeys, but my feeling is just pressing Alt

btw, alt alone appears to do nothing for gtk apps.
Also, I don't really care which one alt highlights, but it seems to me
that alt just highlights the leftmost menu. This happens to always be
File. If the File menu is not leftmost, then it's unclear which should
be highlighted.
