'+' expands the highlighted entry, and '-' collapses.

I recalled GTK+ menu entry shortcut keys to be editable could not
remember how it was to be done.  This is what I've since found:

"Go to System/Preferences/Menus & Toolbars and enable 'Editable menu
accelerators'"

I'm using Karmic Koala, and this seems to be
System > Preferences > Appearance, then Interface tab from the
Appearance Preferences dialog.  The checkbox for Editable menu shortcut
keys appears there.

"... open any menu from the menu bar, move the cursor above the relevant
menu option and press the shortcut you want to assign. This shortcut
should appear right next to the menu option label."
