I've seen mentions of the move to GtkBuilder, and it seems to hold
lots of advantages. Apart from the burden for translators as Michael
mentions, I just realised that this change will impact the quality
checks in Pootle and similar tools that still assume that '~' is the
only marker. From a quick look, 13 of the quality checks in the
Translate Toolkit remove the marker as part of the test. Although this
might not make a difference in all affected strings, this is still
unfortunate, since it might introduce lots of false complaints from
the quality checks.

Is there a way to distinguish the accelerator from the #: comments, or
filename, or something like that?
