When using the keyboard to cycle through menu items, file and folder names containing "&" are skipped...

I assume this has something to do with the fact that "&" is used to designate shortcut keys...

Oh indeed. You mean when using keyboard accelerators. Thanks for the bug report. If the & is followed by a space, then space bar is selecting it at present.
