It would be far better if the Transcript window didn't have an accept menu entry. And if that were done, then I'd suggest that the cancel should be replaced with something like 'clear', since we bind accept & cancel quite tightly together. Indeed, I'd claim that almost nothing int he current transcript window menu should be there; a transcript is supposed to be a logfile-reader analogue, not any sort of working space.
