This issue is not about menukeys. I hypothesized that the change in the
core latex package that triggered the seminar issue is similar (I
believe) to the triggered issue in menu keys. But a fix to menukeys will
not fix the issue here.

Agreed. That said, I don't think my commit made anything worse. I agree
that it did not make things much better, but at least explaining things
to the user is better than nothing in my opinion.
