[Gnumed-devel] draft gnumed-client 0.4.6-1 menus

I note empirically the method alt-Letter to jump to menus... is it so on both Windows and Linux?

Can Alt-F for "Find" or Alt-S for "Search" be implemented to jump the focus into the patient search box with all of the text within selected? Does this require that a menu item be added under the Patient menu (which maybe it should, anyway)?
--> wishlist?

Check for updates
- when the client is up to date, the user thinks this item does not work, as the only evidence is the status line at the bottom left of the window.
Suggest:
1. might we update the status line, which currently says "Your client is up to date", to "Your client <v #> is up to date" (but only if this adds no maintenance for future versions) 2. client pops open a window. I grant that the user would need to dismiss it but, after all, they did go to the trouble of selecting the menu item.
--> importance = low or = wishlist?

Announce maintenance
- ok to rename "Announce downtime" ?
- when this is selected, the user has no way to know if it "works" and maybe they are currently programmatically excluded from the notification, but maybe *should* be included so they can know that it works? Alternatively update the status line (which says nothing)?
--> low

also with "Announce maintenance" --> "Announce downtime" the user does not know the actual outgoing message. Is it intended to be assumed to be immediate, or is it intended for the user to be able to communicate a text comment like "in 5 minutes" or "tonight"?
--> wishlist?

can this same mechanism be used to dispatch an interoffice memo (Office menu option = Announce info) e.g.
- praxis manager leaving early in 10 minutes if no-one needs her
--> wishlist?

likewise under Help menu could this functionality help the in-praxis situation of a cardiac arrest (Help menu = Announce emergency)
- capacity to include / display originating username?
- capacity to include / display machine location?
--> wishlist?

lock client
- maybe not yet implemented, if not envisioned for 0.6 rename to
- lock client (future)
--> medium?
