I'm not sure whether Alt+Character is intended to open of menu. For me (on Windows 11) it works this way: Press Alt key and release it. Now the bar with the menu names shows for each menu an underlined character. Then press this character. The drop-down list of that menu opens.

tdf#65911 add accelerators for style editing

Even the original bug 65911 is still open and known issues are mentioned (but not this one).

That is how it works for me with e.g. Firefox that has a hidden menu, on Ubuntu+Gnome.
LibreOffice doesn't work like that.
(In general my finger memory is quite good ;) )
