What localization, what OS/DE?  

Why we in this BZ context care...

Accelerators normally are translated and receive appropriate mnemonic.
Short-cuts are normally set elsewhere and are retained across localizations. 
The "Discard/Close Without Saving/Don't Save" takes an accelerator. 

And actually the dialog discard any changes, and its mnemonic has been changed
several times.

Most recently for bug 82017 -- "Close/Save confirmation dialog doesn't use
CMD-D for don't save" for reasonable accommodation of the OS X side.  The .ui
Glade GTK button object remains labeled "discard".

3.3 -> 3.6 label and accelerator was "~Discard"

4.0 -> 4.3 label and accelerator was "Close _Without Saving" (note move to .ui)

4.4 -> 5.2 label and accelerator is "_Don`t Save"

I would argue that the original "Discard" is the better *localizable* label
but there is no real reason to revert or change from commint
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=10abd657aacea884f520c97054625a94184c4aca

and certainly no reason to adopt an "N" entry.

Otherwise the only issue here is that the accelerator is not revealed--hence
the dupe to bug 99326.
