Public bug reported: Pre 13.04, the HUD could access anything on the global menu. For eg, hitting alt and typing shutdown brought up the shutdown option, it could be used to open applications integrated into the sound and messenger menu like rhythmbox, banshee and thunderbird. From 13.04 onwards, on any fresh installation and upgrade, i find this feature does not work. I atleast think its a bug and should be fixed soon. Thanks for reading and have a nice day :)
