[Bug 1319530] [NEW] Menu hotkey changes not reflected

 

Public bug reported:

Start gnome-terminal (version 3.6.2 in Trusty). Under Edit->Keyboard
Shortcuts change one of the shortcuts that's shown in the menu (e.g.
change Normal Size from Ctrl+0 to Ctrl+1).

Notice that the menu (gnome-terminal's View->Normal Size menu entry)
still shows the old value, Ctrl+0. This hotkey no longer works, the new
version is in effect. But you have to close the window and open a new
gnome-terminal window for the menu to update.

The bug is specific to the Unity menu at the top of the desktop. If
gnome-terminal is started with UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 (or under a different
window manager), the shortcut in the menu is updated immediately.

gnome-terminal 3.12 got some heavy refactoring around its menu and
hotkeys (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728121), yet, the
same problem persists. So I really suspect it's a bug in Unity's app
menu, rather than gnome-terminal.
