Customisation of menu item accelerator

Your rating: None
I'd like to have an option to style separately the menu accelerator from the menu item label.
I tried to make a (poor) patch, but it has its problems :
Changing color is easy, but changing size is really ugly, since we are changing text layout without the widget knowing about it, we must adjust it manually, and we have over/under allocated space for the text. - the patch - A small demo (not mockup), this also uses a patch for mnemonics, but it's even more hackish and another topic...

I have implemented the part

I have implemented the part that changes the color, not sure about the size...

i'm not particularly in love with hack/workarounds... what do you think?

Just out of curiosity...

Just out of curiosity... what is this mnemonics patch you have going on here? Is it for consistent placement of mnemonics? You have no idea how many fonts I've declined to use just because the mnemonic is placed differently on some characters than others. It irritates me to no end. It looks like there's a nice little gradient effect on them too.
