But that's not the intent of the original text: it did _not_ mean to say
that users should use the simulate menu bar to add text properties. I'm
quite sure the intent was those "M-g b" etc. bindings described in the next
section.
So I'm asking whether adding a sentence saying something like "The
keyboard way of adding text properties is described in the next section."
would solve the problem you raise.
