[Humphrey van Polanen Petel <1499942@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

Pressing <Alt> reveals the main menu with keyboard short-cuts properly underlined.
Pressing one of those keys reveals the drop-down menu with keyboard short-cuts *not* underlined.
Moving the cursor down by pressing the <Down> key will make the underlines appear.

This is behavior is unfriendly towards those who prefer to use the
keyboard, because of suffering "mouse arm".

There appears to be a setting somewhere to make those letters underlined.
Therefore there should be a setting in System setting>All setting>Appearance that allows the user to choose.
That setting not being there makes it a matter of bad design which goes against the spirit of ubuntu which qualifies it as a bug.
