The GUI menu is in most cases implemented in the toolkit used by
Emacs, not in Emacs itself.  So the shortcut keys that control the GUI
menu are the keys defined by the toolkit.  Emacs cannot redefine them,
at least not easily (and if it did, users might complain, since they
are used to what the toolkit does).
