Details

At the moment the first matching character in a string is used to show which key is the accesskey. Accesskeys are much more visible if they are the start of a word. Sometimes the same key occurs more than once in a label and it would be more visible to show the one at the start of a word.

Example:
label "Close other tabs"
accesskey "o"

Expected result:
Close _o_ther tabs / Close &other tabs / Close <u>o</u>ther tabs

Actual result:
Cl_o_se other tabs / Cl&ose other tabs / Cl<u>o</u>se other tabs
