F10 for accessibility in KF6!

We now have a new KStandardShortcut. With https://commits.kde.org/kconfig/782e43f8076e5f4a10111a6b4d2cc6b1741c9798 the F10 key is now assigned to “Open Main Menu”. This is in my opinion a big win for accessibility because up until now for blind people there was no consistent way in our software to open the main menu.

Yes, it is a bit stupid that the webpage considers the ): to be part of the link when it very clearly isn’t. This forum page correctly understands it. I will make sure to put a space between a URL and a ) in the future.
