Oops, there's a configuration option for exactly this. Never mind.

Title:
  Alt+F, Alt+B, etc. open menubar items instead of moving cursor forward
  and back on current command line

Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  What happens: Alt+F opens the "File" menu item and Alt+B shows the
  menubar (but does not open any menu item, because no menu item
  corresponding to that key combination exists).

  What should happen: Alt+B moves the cursor back one word, and Alt+F
  moves the cursor forward one word.

  Before Unity, hiding the menu bar allowed these key combinations to
  work as I expected. Now I cannot hide the menubar.
