So you're saying that you have keyboard shortcuts in the menubar which don't start with the Cmd (btw: != Fn = Function key)? ;)

I have never seen such a thing, on any platform (I /have/ seen applications such as Blender that use all sorts of weird shortcuts, depending on the "edit mode" etc. - I am just saying that I have never seen *menu* shortcuts consisting of a single letter, e.g. just S instead of CMD + S for save).

I don't have the answer, but I could imagine that this is a "Mac thing" not to allow this. Refer to the Apple Human Interface Design guidelines.

P.S. We are really talking about "shortcuts", not "_a_ccelerators", right?
