[Bug 1007075] Re: Menu key shortcuts gone in GVim

Keyboard shortcuts are added manually when creating a menu item.
Example:

:menu Edit.Echo\ Hello<Tab>eh :echo "Hello"<CR>

Actually, the command "eh" will not echo anything because the real
shortcut was not created by a :map command. But you can execute the
command through the menu, which should have the following appearance:

    Edit
    [...]
    Echo Hello     eh

But we actually see:

    Edit
    [...]
    Echo Hello

The keyboard shortcuts only appear if the global menu is disabled by
starting gvim with the command:

UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= gvim

I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 64bit.
