I tried this and it broke my normal paste. What is the best way to reverse it? Thanks.

You can probably find and remove the entry from ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist

I've since found setting per-applicaiton keyboard shortcuts to be a better way to handle this. They can be set from System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Application Shortcuts. When you create an application shortcut, remember to set the Menu Title to the text exactly the way it appears in the menu item.

Ok, that worked and thanks for the tip!
