The accesskey for 'Discontinue Link' in Composer isn't currently localizable.
Keywords: l12y, nsbeta1
Yes it is. The strings for the menu items and the accesskey is in editor.properties. It is using the same accesskey as for "RemoveLinks": "RemoveLinksAccesskey" ("n"in English). The menu text is changed dynamically and the accesskey key is reset at that time. Both strings ("Remove Links" and "Discontinue Link" in English) should contain the work "Link" and thus the accesskey should be from that word. This should be localizable. There's still a bug (41974) that prevents the accesskey from displaying correctly. The same strategy is used to share the accesskey for "Remove All Text Styles" and "Discontinue Text Styles", which both use "x" in English. Should we simply add a "#LOCALIZATION NOTE" in editor.properties to explain this behavior?
> Should we simply add a "#LOCALIZATION NOTE" in > editor.properties to explain this behavior? Yes! It's very difficult to know which accesskey applies when the label and accesskey don't share the same name.
cmanske: I thought bug 41974 was fixed a while back. Are you still seeing this? If not, can you mark it fixed?
I'll add explanatory comments to editor.properties

r=timeless, but shouldn't StopLinks=Discontinue Link be outside of the RemoveLinks segment?

I'm not sure what you mean, but I will reorder the lines so related items are clearly next to each other.
