No problem. We are all volunteers and a life besides Wine ;) Two 
volunteers for Finish is even better.

One shouldn't have the same accelerators in one submenu. Different 
submenu's with same accelerators is no problem. So your example is correct.

Maybe we should teach our resource compiler to warn about duplicate 
accelerators (or maybe even error out).

I guess 99% is translatable. The ones you mention have more to do with 
how a Finish Windows version would show up. These should be translated 
if users would otherwise be confused.

If there is no official LGPL license in your language, you can just use 
the English one.
