We should, but because I was lazy and impatient, I wrote the attached 
(terrible) hack just to see what right-justification would look like.

The right margin is slightly ragged because I'm using plain spaces to offset 
the key binding from the menu text, but I still think it's better than what we 
have now. I tried using U+2009 THIN SPACE and even U+200A HAIR SPACE instead 
but somehow the result became worse; no doubt a silly mistake somewhere.

I also removed the special hack for s- bindings because it broke the nice 
alignment. If we want, we could translate modifiers into the standard symbols 
(⌘, ⌃, ⇧ and ⌥) depending on these are assigned, or just keep using the Emacs 
notation. We could also translate <right> into → and so on.
