Retagging release from 4.0.0-rc2 to 4.0.0.

Good catch. I changed the Preferences shortcut to sit under the Edit menu in the shortcut manager here (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/13315376edaa).

The Shortcuts tab of the Preferences window would also need to be updated, to be in sync with the GUI: the menu entry "Preferences" had been moved from the File to the Edit menu.

Actually, I don't care whether it's always under File or always under Edit. I just want it to be consistent.

I agree. This kind of consistency is useful in a GUI.

Preferences is found under the File menu in Octave's main window, but it's under the Edit menu in the Editor window.

I recommend Preferences be located always under in the Edit menu, for a consistent user experience.
