Is this "no accelerators" rule still active? Even in languages where
automatic selection of accelerators work, can that not break
documentation? I mean, can adding a new string lead to all accelerators
being redefined?

As far as I know, documentation is not mentioning accelerators in general, but only shortcuts (CTRL-S and similar).

And there is point 3 in section 1.1 in the Mnemonics_Localisation page
mentioned above:
"The bugs are fixed manually in Web-LingTool by placing the '~'
character to a different position"
Removing all explicitly defined accelerators would remove such bug fixes.

The guidelines in http://openoffice.apache.org/translate.html item 3 only mention "newly translating strings": existing accelerators can be left as they ae, they won't break anything (except, possibly, making more difficult some automated matches in translation management).

  Andrea.
