I was primarily thinking of a alt+x mneomic-style hotkey, which for the most part, is unavailable.
I just opened a few gtk programs to see if I could nail down exactly what I'm thinking of. In a few of them (OO.write and Gimp, for example), there IS a mnemonic hotkey for "Select File Type". Other program's "save as" dialog only have a drop-down menu widget for which there doesn't seem to be a mnemonic (Firefox and Gedit, for example). Unfortunately, while hitting alt+t to focus on that dialog does open the dialog, it doesn't FOCUS it. You have to either hit tab several times or use the mouse. My goal is to navigate the entire dialog via keyboard in the most efficient manner possible, which would mean a mnemonic that focuses the dialog or focuses/opens the drop-down menu, depending on which is available. I tend to think it should consistently be one or another, but that's only my (uninformed) opinion and certainly out of the scope of this bug report. Let me know as far as any testing or reporting I can provide!
