Using "alt" to display the popup isn't great because pressing "alt" makes 
focus move out of the view (bringing it to konqueror's menus).

Also using Alt or Ctrl to show the popup but then a different modifier for 
accesskeys isn't very logical I think (since Ctrl and Alt are usually used as 
modifiers). I personnaly think "-" and "_" is still a better solution.

For advertising, we could clearly mention the "-" and "_" keys in the :about 
page from konqueror (and also add accessibility shortcuts to that page)

By the way, my patch disables the old "ctrl+alt" behaviour. I think it is too 
bad if trying to use an accesskey locks the desktop.

I know string freeze is close, and I think having a good working accesskey 
system would be a real plus for konqueror.
Should I submit the patch on the kfm mailing list ?
