To this user, at least, it's clearer that users
will expect the alias's key indication than that
they will expect no key indication.

More importantly, showing the key is more helpful
to users than not showing it.  The key has the
same effect, for users, as using the menu item.

Consider also:

(defun foo () (interactive) (message "FOO"))
(global-set-key "\C-o" 'foo)
(defalias 'bar 'foo)

C-h w bar

  bar is not on any key;
   its alias foo is on C-o

That's nice, complete info.  Both pieces of that
info are appropriate for such a Help command.

Presumably we tell users about the alias binding
to let them know that you can use `C-o' to, in
effect, invoke `bar'.

That's the info that's missing, for a menu item.
