I discussed this with Marko beforehand, underscores are used as often for
access key prefixes as ampersands.

We decided for underscores though because it is much more likely that a link
that should be accessible by access keys may contain an ampersand than an
underscore, thus we will have to escape the prefix in fewer cases.
