Yeah, every textbox is accessable by tab-stopping, so I didn't "report" it. Patchou could make it that all those controls can handle ampersands though (well most of them can already btw, but they aren't "active" and wont focus the texbox that goes with them, except in a few places where it actually works (eg: the textfind dialog in a conversation))

But indeed, also take in account that Plus! is indeed a GUI, like Choli said, and putting an ampersand on every possible control would make it a living hell for the translators and most translations wont be 100% correct with all the ampersand-collisions (heck, even now there are problems sometimes to find a "free" ampersand)

Oh yeah, forgot about that one... the same goes for the special plus menu in the contactlist (in english, and other languages).... (although some languages do have them though ;))

True, you can just press the first letter of the menu, but many people don't know that, and also, you can have the same letter in several items, putting ampersands there doesn't harm, infact they help IMHO
