Oops, there's a configuration option for exactly this. Never mind.

Title:
Alt+F, Alt+B, etc. open menubar items instead of moving cursor forward
and back on current command line
Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
What happens: Alt+F opens the "File" menu item and Alt+B shows the
menubar (but does not open any menu item, because no menu item
corresponding to that key combination exists).
What should happen: Alt+B moves the cursor back one word, and Alt+F
moves the cursor forward one word.
Before Unity, hiding the menu bar allowed these key combinations to
work as I expected. Now I cannot hide the menubar.
