Yes! Finally! It seems not too many people are aware of this "standard"...

As a matter of fact you can change to any character you want, "¬" for
instance, while HTML is highlighted, but not clicked, just hovered, in
the menu.

Is there a list of all those dirty tricks that I should be aware of ?
I mean the way this works is absolutely fabulous, but you have to know
the trick. It's the first time that I encounter the possibility of
changing a menu that easily. What other applications work this way?

Since you seem to know more than anybody else about GNOME/GTK, is
there any place that I can change the configuration so that "new file"
doesn't enter the clipboard, namely Klipper, when I create a new file?

Thanks a lot!
