I don't understand this bug.  Why should Alt-G bring up the "Go to
folder" dialog?  Why are you expecting the other Alt-letter
keybindings to do anything?

Control-I doesn't work when you have popped up the menu, because when
you have popped up the menu you are in menu navigation mode, which
disables the shortcuts.  Arguably that should behave differently, but
that's the way GTK and all the GNOME applications work.  If it's an
issue, it should be brought up with the GTK team.
