Where precisely in the manual do you suggest talking about this issue?
What node names?

Ah, yes, sorry I did not see that the problem with M-TAB when Alt is used as meta is mentioned neither in the doc string for w32-pass-alt-to-system or in the footnote. I definitively think it should be mentioned in both places since that is a big problem. And you can not either access the menus the way that is normal on w32, i e by first pressing the Alt key. BTW, if I do not misremember it is a recommendation in the accessibility guidelines that this should work. I think this to really is worth mentioning.
