Keys issue should be now fixed in trunk. (I forgot to implement menu hotkeys at U++ side with Cocoa menus...)

Thanks!
Keys work fine now.
Menu works when ide is launched from "Aplications".
When it is launched from command line I need to switch to another app and back to make it work.
Another observation: there is something, probably, wrong with dependency tracking because I was getting the "Invalid memory access!" error message after I compiled new code and tried to launch ide. Complete recompilation fixed the problem.

Yes, I have actually spent on this about two weeks before I have found that menu does not work right in command-line....

Yes, the CtrlCore code seems to be too confusing for current dependency system. "known issue".

Looks very nice! But there is a problem with dark mode:
Normal buttons have no label and overall contrast is too high.

Label fixed, however the appearance of buttons looks like bug in MacOS (they forgot to update the only API they provide for GUI styling).

From what I have seen on the web Qt apps have same ugly buttons in dark. Maybe Qt guys will push Apple to fix that...

One possible solution is to forget about reading styling data from OS and just provide two Mac themes (normal and dark).
