notes:
    <Note by uchi (Uchida, Kenji), 2001/07/03 23:57:27, seq: 1 rel: 0  action: open>
Arrow keys(Up/Down/Left/Right) are not working as keyboard accelerator.

For example, PageDesigner have the following menu item.

"Table" -> "Split Row  Ctrl+Alt+Down"

An keyboard accelerator for the above action does not function because the "Down" 
is not recognized as down key. If I use the string "Arrow_Down" instead of "Down", 
like "Split Row  Ctrl+Alt+Arrow_Down", it works. But, the prefix "Arrow_" is not good 
for a menu string. "Down" should be recognized as down key.
