** Description changed:

  Unity 2d uses F10 shotcut to show menu,
  but many applications use this key too
  
  a lot of IDE's bind to F10 debug function "Step over"... FireFox Firebug and 
Google Chrome debugger does it
  text editor Kate use F10 to toogle word wraping
  I think there are more app uses it
  
  May be unity2d should use different shotcut for mainmenu?
  
  -------------------------------------------
  Desired resolution:
  
  - The "F10" shortcut should be changed to "Alt + F10".  No "F" keys
  should ever be used for shell shortcuts without an additional modifier
  key.  This change brings the shortcut into line with the "Alt +F1"
  Launcher keyboard navigation shortcut.
  
+ - The menu key should perform the same function as Alt + F10 (display
+ menus).  A nice to have gold plating feature would be to detect if a
+ menu key is present on the keyboard, and if it is display the 'menu' key
+ shortcut in the shortcuts overlay in place of "Alt + F10"
+ 
  - The "Alt + F5" becomes a toggle, shifting the window between restored
  and maximised states (replacing the previous windox maximise Alt + F10
  shortcut)
