I disagree that conservative approach is not a way to go. Terminal is very
special application and it should be excluded from a "normal" behaviour. IMHO
F10 to open a menu is a stupid idea in the first place in the same way as F11
for full screen etc. It may work well in a browser, but not in all
applications. And when it comes to terminal - it's not just an app, it's a
container for running apps. I don't think that terminal should be aware what
keys are used in a terminal app and to decide when to open the menu or to pass.
I have lots of scripts I created that utilise all F keys. And I always loved
Konsole. Suddenly I'm in a big trouble. Not to mention popular apps like mc,
htop etc. 

IMHO getting rid of this "feature" is a way to go, or at least adding something
like shift+F10, like they did for copy-paste (ctrl+shift+c). I wouldn't be
surprised if someone wants to use ctrl+c in terminal for copy :)
