And there are none of those in qttranslations (5.8.0) itself which explains why 
I didn't see it.

That makes sense, I don't think it'll be a huge additional resource.

Ew, yes. I need to dust off my memory...
- the filled apple symbol was never used on a Mac keyboard (according to Google 
Images at least)
- legacy keyboards had both the current clover-like symbol and an outline apple 
symbol on the command key (e.g. http://www.geektechnique.org/images/854.jpg). I 
think we can presume that the former was chosen to indicate a "key of 
interest", 
(or else as a rare gesture to 3rd party keyboard makers to label the key 
without 
having to pay licensing 8-))

I still tend to think of the Command key as "the Apple key". What I do remember 
correctly is that I've never known how to generate the outline apple symbol on 
a 
keyboard - it might not even have a Unicode representation.

Either way, I've been using it to represent Command-? shortcuts for ages, and 
it's only now that I realise that hasn't been appropriate for most of that 
time...

I see it as a small, solid Apple logo, complete with the bite mark. The reason 
you see something else might simply be because your font doesn't have the 
glyph. 
I'm seeing it just fine on Linux, but I'm using a Monaco TTF font borrowed from 
OS X.

Undoubtedly, but that's moot here. As posted earlier it was trivial to get the 
shortcut mnemonics displayed correctly by using the L2R override character.
