That irks me too. This is also true of the 'Windows' keys, if you assign
them to shortcuts; KDE's menu handler apparently highlights menus when the
'Windows' key is pressed too, not just alt. Either way, I think that if alt
or win is pressed as part of a successfully-executed shortcut, the menu
highlighting should not occur.
