The new Help menu goes some ways to alleviating this problem, but I
still think it would be nice to have some sort of visual indication
that a menu item has alternates.
Actually that Help menu search is potentially confusing for alternate
menu items: there's no indication that it's an alternate.
Say I search for "clear" and see that "Clear Console" is in the Run
menu, but it's disabled right now. Okay, I know where to go later.
Later on I want to clear the console, so I go to the Run menu. Hey,
all I see is "Console" now! How do I get to the clear command without
searching for it? Especially since, with my current settings, neither
command has a shortcut. The concept of alternate menu commands without
shortcuts is not intuitive to me at all. Normally the alternate is
revealed by pressing its shortcut modifiers.
Plus, I don't think showing the console window and clearing its
contents are quite close enough to be alternate menu commands of each
other. Yes, time to file some bugs.
