Menu shortcuts can not be edited using all key combinations

[Adi Roiban]

Binary package hint: indicator-application

The is a strange behavior in appmenu.

I have enabled the editable menu shortcut keys in GNOME.

When using the appmenu applet in GNOME, I can delete a menu shortcut using „backspace” but then I can not add a Ctrl+KEY combination or assign a function key.

It looks like the Help -> Contents menu entries is always displayed as having F1 as the key shortcut even though I have disabled it.... Trying to press Backspace over Help->Contents does not remove F1 from the UI. (shortcut is in fact disabled).

Also when removing the appmenu applet and adding it again it seems that the shortcut are somehow not updated... not sure what is happening there. In the normal GTK menu a I have some custom shortcuts ... but when enabling the appmenu they are not the same.

Cheers,
Adi
