I can't remember an example that didn't also include the shortcut written in full, but I might just be drawing a blank here. Care to give an example?

Fair. I just remember them being inconsistent between the English and localised versions of Windows, and given I used both, that turned into a nothing-feature. Another comment mentioned you could edit the underlines in Office 2003, but I never knew that back in the day (or until today for that matter...).

It's pretty hard for the shortcuts to be consistent and localized. Especially if you also use different keyboard layouts when you're using different languages...

Even for keys that aren't mnemonic, do you want undo to be ctrl + z or ctrl + the key closest to left shift?

Hence my original comment. I haven't had a problem with different keyboard layouts, since most of the keys that change are on the outer edge, nowhere near where the most common shortcuts are located (then again, I rarely type using QWERTZ).

CTRL+Z, since that's what it's been since time immemorial, even on ISO keyboards. Consistency is king.

Yup, pretty sure I've seen the same sorts of things using Asian characters.
