Yeah - I have a View menu for instance that has a "Zoom In" option with 
the accelerator/shortcut "i". This has always worked with previous Qt 
versions/OS X releases, and I believe is a supported type of accelerator 
on OS X.

I was able to work around these by adding explicit QShortcuts that 
implement them. It's just the automatic support from QMenu that wasn't 
working.

There aren't many but there is precedent. Final Cut Pro X for instance 
uses single-letter menu shortcuts.
