The visualization of mnemonics shown on dialogue buttons depends on the user interaction. Using the mouse does not make the mnomonics visible in any case, while usage of keyboard does.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. context menu in project explorer: Import...
2. use mouse and expand first folder, select first entry (single click)
=> Next button get's enabled, but mnemonic is not visible
3. close the import dialogue and re-open
4. focus is on filter, use keyboard to jump to the first folder (Arrow Down)
5. Expand the folder (Arrow Right) and navigate to the first entry (Arrow Down)
=> Next button gets enabled and mnemonic is visible

Mnmonic should become visible also when the mouse is used.

That is not true, mnemonics only show when using the keyboard.
Test using another native app, like Windows Explorer property page.
