Bug Description

Qt5 added &s to labels of menu items to mark which letter is used for keyboard shortcuts. This broke the spellcheck replacements from the right click menu in texmaker. I have written a patch which stores the spelling suggestion in a separate data structure so it isn't corrupted by the keyboard shortcut delimiter.

I haven't been able to get this fix pushed upstream so I figured I would submit it somewhere so at least someone besides me can benefit from it.
