Changed the hotkey for that option from R to P and had to change it to M after all. that's probably the reason why in real guis alt-something is always bound to visible accelerators while the clever shortcuts are hidden behind ctrl combinations. not that it would make them more discoverable, but at least there is a clean separation and no unobvious conflicts. I've commented this in the code (edit_replace_dialog()). Not that this makes it obvious for the user that (s)he can use Alt-p but it avoids a developer accidently trying to change the hotkeys in a conflicting way. I might need to add a similar comment for Alt-n and possible elsewhere in the docs.

The point of this patch is to let the user quickly switch syntax highlighting on and of (IMO). Note that you can already toggle the syntax highlighting by choosing unknown in that dialog.
