I've tried it and it seems to work. I think it would be even clearer without
the hyphens:
n==>New File... (C-x C-f) o==>Open Recent
O==>Open File... d==>Open Directory... (C-x d)
i==>Insert File... (C-x i) c==>Close (current buffer)
Save (current buffer) (C-x C-s)
s==>Save Buffer As... (C-x C-w) Revert Buffer
r==>Recover Crashed Session p==>Print Buffer
Print Region P==>Postscript Print Buffer
Postscript Print Region 0==>Postscript Print Buffer (B+W)
Postscript Print Region (B+W) a==>a2ps (<f22>)
S==>Split Window (C-x 2) Unsplit Windows (C-x 1)
N==>New Frame (C-x 5 2) f==>New Frame on Display...
D==>Delete Frame (C-x 5 0) e==>Exit Emacs (C-x C-c)
The nonselectable items, are still selectable from the completions buffer with
mouse-1 or <RET>. They just do nothing and return to the original buffer. I
guess this is consistent with clicking on a nonselectable menu-item but in
this case its clearer that you haven't selected anything because the relief of
the menu-item doesn't raise when the mouse is over it. Might it be better/is
it possible to make clicking with mouse-1 or typing <RET> over these items do
absolutely nothing in text mode i.e keep the completions buffer intact (and
perhaps echo "No completions here" in the mini-buffer), just like in the
preamble?
Overall I think this an improvement, more consistent and worth installing.
