Bug Description
Keyboard shortcuts don't work with the menu. For example, I should be able to hit "Ctrl-F" and the file menu should open. Same with Ctrl-E for edit, etc.

That task actually covers 3 different aspects:
- using shortcuts like CTRL-V or CTRL-O from the application window should still work (it does at the moment with the appmenu-gtk module)
- shortcuts should be able to trigger a popup menu (like CTRL-F in g-terminal)
- ideally, pressing ALT in the application window should highlight the mnemonics in the panel menu
