Yes, I agree. Thank you for mentioning this.
Be had it right, IMO. Their implementation works, visually, given
classic menu item sets and does cope decently with the occasional odd
combo.
In Haiku the menus now look inconsistent within the same menu bar if
there's a combo in one menu but not in the rest. Do we really want
this?
Do we even need the combos at all? (most of the time)
We could just as well use two menu items instead:
Open... Alt-O
Open Recent >
Combining them looses clarity and gains very little, IMO.
