We do have an option to run the accelerator check against other
languages (./tests/glade/run_glade_tests.sh --translate), and I've filed
bugs against a couple of languages, but it's not been something that
I've been doing regularly.
And now that you mention the _Done/_Hotovo issue I guess the accelerator
check doesn't take the default buttons into account at all.
