feature request: quick access to desktop menu entries

[Matthias Eller]

hello,

it would be a very nice feature if you can access the items in the
desktop menu via the first character of the name. (Just like in a
mainmenu or something (in glade for example you would write _File))
Or if access via first character is to easy a cool algorythm wich
chooses in the name of the entry the first char which is not used in
this level of the menu, so you have a unique key for every entry
(unfortunatly it would change if you chane the arrangement of the
menuentries).

Im asking for this feature because I use such shortcuts whenever
possible and this would provide a very fast way to start programs...

greetings
Matthias Eller
