Request for review: 7144063: [macosx] Swing JMenu mnemonic doesn't work; hint misleading; cross symbol typed

[Scott Kovatch]

I haven't applied your patch, but I noticed this too. Looks like we need another bug for that. 

The right arrow 'works' in that the cursor gets moved ahead one character, but then the input method immediately deletes the character and replaces it with the new candidate character.

Once i hold down the e it starts autorepeating. Moving mouse or using arrow keys do not help much. Any option i have to turn on for that?
