On signed messages the signature check row appears below the message with a lock icon and a label that reads "The signature has not been checked. Click the icon or hit 'C' to check it." If the user has set a different preset keyboard shortcuts, or simply remapped the menu entry accelerator, the 'C' is not available for signature checking. The easy fix would be to remove the mention of the 'C' key and simply refer to the menu option "Message/Check signature". Showing also the current value of the menu accelerator of that option (if any) would be an even better fix, of course.

Thanks Colin for the patch! Nevertheless there's still some rough edges: - If there's no key assigned it reads "or hit the '' key", I guess in those cases would be better to remove that and leave the "Click the icon" text only. - If the checking timeouts, the string is still harcoded and reads "Timeout checking the signature. Click the icon or hit 'C' to try again." :)
now fixed (again!) in GIT
