Comment (by pulkomandy):

 Sadly the keyboard shortcuts are not intuitive in any case currently. The
 names we use don't match what's written on the keyboard, on mac nor on PC.
 There are proposals to try to match the displayed name with what's printed
 on the key, but then it becomes a problem for the documentation (which
 can't know how the key is named on your particular setup).

 The menu key may not be mapped properly (mapped to the keycode and
 ignoring the keymap), that would be a bug.
