[DUG] Mainform ActionList keyboard shortcuts from other forms

[Kyley Harris]

from what I'm aware, and you can look at the source to confirm, but any
action in an action list on the main form are handled by all forms. the
action call back code checks the active form, before asking the mainform to
test it.

I have just added basic edit cut,copy paste actions to my main form and
have a single popup menu on the main form, which i dynamically bind to all
edit controls in the app. its working perfectly
