Context menus are not consulted when searching for key equivalents,
unless they're actually open at the time, so you should not see the
same problem.
Also, all user key equivalents (what users can set in SysPrefs) are
deliberately suppressed in context menus. This is because it would be
confusing if a context menu showed a key equivalent that didn't
actually function when the menu is not open.
If you assign an ordinary key equivalent to the context menu, it will
appear - but it's your app's responsibility to make it work if the
menu is not open. Generally context menus don't have key equivalents.

Many thanks! Having a separate delegate for the large document-
listing menus sounds a reasonable solution. That will just be one
extra delegate in the MainMenu.nib to handle this and it should fix
all my issues - so thank you! One final question, I promise: does
this apply to contextual menus, too, or only the main menu?
Thanks again and all the best,
Keith
