This is a first try to make these keys more obvious as requested on

A more complex approach would be to mention only the keys which
actually would change the current package state.
Thanks for this patch.
So, I appreciate what this is trying to do, but I have great
difficultly convincing myself that this is the right approach.
I'm also not sure. An alternative would possibly be some help below the
listbox, centered in the same line as "Hide obsolete packages".
We don't need to resort to a tooltip for any other shortcut, because
there is an established visual design language to indicate those. I
guess we just need to find what's consistent with pre-existing ways of
indicating this kind of behaviour in other applications.
Cygwin setup is somewhat uncommon as there is no default menu bar with
drop-down menus. Accelerator keys are traditionally mentioned there.
