Pressing Alt alone in the later versions displays the tab shortcut keys in the Ribbon (whether or not it is displayed) and the numbers for the Quick Access Toolbar items. Pressing key for one of these then opens the next level, or, in the QAT, activates the item.

I still have to remind myself to release Alt before pressing the next key, such as in ALT,L,U for the template and add-ins dialogue; Alt+L does nothing.

My understanding is that the Alt-key combinations from legacy versions were preserved in the Ribbon versions, with simultaneous key press preserved. The Ribbon shortcuts were added as an overlay. There was no developer tab shortcut in the menu versions. I would guess that the same is true of the design tab.
