Has been turned LO into mouse-only application under Windows. All of my muscle
memory commands, such as ALT-F,S, ALT-F,X, D. etc do not work anymore. This
makes LO unable for keyboard users such as myself.

Abhilash Singh,
Do you understand that hiding the "accelerator underline" does not disable the
accelerator itself? It just hides it until the ALT key is pressed. Use any
windows app from Notepad to Word and you will see that pressing Alt makes the
underline appear and all the shortcuts work even though their "hint" is not
displayed until the alt key is pressed. This is how every Windows Application
functions.  

The intent of this bug report is to make Windows LOOK like these other
applications. Not disable all accelerators. 


Noel, Samuel, or Abhilash
Can you please revert this commit ASAP as 
     a) it doesn’t actually solve Bug 54169 and 
     b) it makes LO unusable for keyboard people
