Hi

Same issue for other languages as portuguese. I found it unsolvable in
many situations: not enough unique letters in long menus or dialogs.

Unless the menus get short (e.g. the Format menu in Calc has 22 entries)
we will get short of unique letters and be obliged to repeat some.

But I don't know if the automatic accelerator algorithm will be an
improvement. Perhaps a subset of the acc'tors should be maintained by
mnemonic associations and leave the rest to the automatic.

But one thing is clear: long menus don't help at all, and should be
reviewed by the UX team.

Regards
