(Get the code!)
There's more to it than just that. The first time one enters information into the Add Account dialog and hits Alt+A, it changes to the Advanced tab. After that, Alt+A goes down to the first widget with a label beginning with 'A'. (e.g. with AIM protocol, "Always use..."; with XMPP, "Allow plaintext...") In order to even get to the Add button, one must repeatedly hit Alt+A to cycle through the widgets with the 'A' shortcut key, then hit Enter.
I don't know if this is a bug or an intended feature. I personally would not have chosen to do that if I had developed the UI. Alt modified keys should stick with tabs and buttons. Let the widgets inside remain without shortcut keys, or at the very least take lower priority than the tabs and buttons.
