      Description

        As seen in following, 3 mnemonic keys seems to be hardcoded and making them unable to localize. Please consider externalizing them to src/share/classes/com/sun/swing/internal/plaf/metal/resources/metal.properties for example.

        src/share/classes/javax/swing/plaf/metal/MetalLookAndFeel.java

                    "FileChooser.lookInLabelMnemonic", new Integer(KeyEvent.VK_I),
                    "FileChooser.fileNameLabelMnemonic", new Integer(KeyEvent.VK_N),
                    "FileChooser.filesOfTypeLabelMnemonic", new Integer(KeyEvent.VK_T),
        Similar hardcode also found in motif L&F.

        src/share/classes/com/sun/java/swing/plaf/motif/MotifLookAndFeel.java

                    "FileChooser.pathLabelMnemonic", new Integer(KeyEvent.VK_P), // 'p'
                    "FileChooser.filterLabelMnemonic", new Integer (KeyEvent.VK_R), // 'r'
                    "FileChooser.foldersLabelMnemonic", new Integer (KeyEvent.VK_L), // 'l'
                    "FileChooser.filesLabelMnemonic", new Integer (KeyEvent.VK_I), // 'i'
                    "FileChooser.enterFileNameLabelMnemonic", new Integer (KeyEvent.VK_N), // 'n'

        Since following keys in src/share/classes/com/sun/java/swing/plaf/motif/resources/motif_xx.properties being translated, in some languages mnemonic character is not in label string and won't show up in gui.
