Accelerators bound to menu items are global accelerators.  Text 
translations are local to the text widget.  Global accelerators trump 
text translations, always.

Menu accelerators are typically things like ^F, ^G, ^H, ^S, etc.
Text translations are typically things like PageUp, arrow keys, etc.

Most actions that you see in menus are done as global accelerators.  If 
you want to use them for a different purpose at a different level, you 
have to find the menu item and explicitly remove the accelerator by 
giving it a blank.  Otherwise it stays there, trumping your translation.
