Hi,

I've tried initializing the accel table, the error has disappeared, but
the tab item does not react to CTRL-S at all. Something to enable maybe?

One more question: what happens if three tabs have the same hotkey
configured in their respective accel table? Do they all receive the
callback, or only the active tab? I'd like to code something similar to
the second solution, but I'm not sure how to do that...
