Bug Description
Mnemonics in menu items work -- but do not show up -- under characters that contain a descender (i.e. lower-case y or upper-case Q.)
The problem can be reproduced in Gedit, Calculator, Mines, Shotwell, and probably many others as well. It occurs regardless of theme, but it's specific to the new Ubuntu font. The bug will *not* reproduce with other fonts.

Hello Eric,
On the system that I have here, the Gtk+ menu accelerator underlines (eg. gnome-terminal) only appear when the Alt key has been pressed (pressing and holding the Alt key should cause the short underlines to appear).
Is this what you're referring to? Please could you also provide two screenshots showing the issue with, and without the Alt key pressed. And if you believe this is specifically related to the Ubuntu Font Family (rather than a theme), please could you provide screenshots showing another font where the behaviour is different.
