This was also something that was addressed in the old threads, I believe... Here's the mail in question. https://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/lists/gimp-developer/2003-June/008870.html In summary: Windows in general: Ctrl-Y Apple standard: Apple-Shift-Z GNOME: Ctrl-Shift-Z KDE: Ctrl-Shift-Z PhotoShop: Ctrl-Shift-Z PSP: Ctrl-Alt-Z (they use Ctrl-Shift-Z for "bring up undo history", apparently) The HIG is the nearest thing we have to a proposal for consistent keybindings across the free desktops - much of it has been adopted by freedesktop, and is being implemented by all the major free software platforms (OO.o, Mozilla, KDE and GNOME). As we can see, the keybinding is also widespread on other systems, and in other apps. It's a small change, and (as has been said before) anyone who is particularly upset by it would presumably be able to modify it using dynamic shortcuts (presumably, the question "what happened to Ctrl-R?" will soon join "Why doesn't = zoom in any more?" as a FAQ).
