[Rails] Can rails make use of accesskeys?

[Bruce Balmer]

Hi:

I updated to locomotive 1.0  I have no idea if that is what solved  
the problem but things are working now with access keys for me.  I  
also wrapped my :action=>goodbye in braces (which I had not done  
before) and that may have been it. Thanks to all that helped and  
particularly Justin, who may have provided the breakthrough.
