I see your point.  I'd not noticed that the same hothey had more than
one function on that menu.  On the other hand, to get that menu I
already have the mouse in my ha nd so a slight twitch of the wrist and
a left click is far quicker than reaching for the keyboard :-)

On the other hand, if you want to use the keyboard for that, try
"a" to get headers in current group or "A" (shift-A) to get headers
in all subscribed groups, no mouse or menu required.
