Wanting to suppress access from the keyboard is totally different from wanting to use a "special" character in a menu item and not have it interpreted as a keyboard accessor. The right way is to provide a way to escape the special meaning for the character, not to suppress the meaning (of being able to use an access key) for the menu altogether.
