I finally got tired of pressing Alt and some letter to activate menus in Gitk. 
For example in "any" program you can press Alt-F to have the File menu drop 
down and then select the underscored character to select the wanted menu.

This series makes it possible. Friends of TCL may think my solution is too
hack-ish. It doesn't fix all of the similary problem (mostly button) but 
that is the subject of later patches as it looks like it requires other
means.
Have a look at what I just pushed out.  It adds infrastructure to let
us use "&" in menu items to specify an alt+letter accelerator, but in
a different way to your patches.  If you'd like to redo your patch to
add "&" to the menu items, that would be good.
