implement standard access keys for menus (in Windows) (e.g. Alt+F to open File menu)
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. In TeXWorks, press Alt+H or Alt+F.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: underlines to appear under access letters for each dropdown menu item
on menu bar, and Help or File menu to open. Similarly, each item on the open
dropdown menu to have an underlined access letter.
Instead, the Alt is ignored and H or F is typed into the open file.

Even if access letters are not assigned for every menu item (which could be
interlocked with localization issues), just allowing standard keyboard
navigation of the menu bar via Alt (by itself), F10, arrow keys, Enter, etc.
would be very helpful.
