Don't think so - this version has a migration from GConf to GSettings
for settings storage so the value may have been lost for you there. If
so, that'd be a bug. I'll make a note to try this out.

I think this is a general issue/feature in Unity. For me, the underlines
appear if I press Alt-F, release, then press the down arrow or mouse
over the dropdown. I see the same in other applications too though, for
example Firefox.
