yeah, I know about this but tbh having gesture support to increase the font
size in a terminal seems a bit... pointless :)

just did a quick test of a few apps that may matter and that were installed.
apps supporting Ctrl+/- and scroll wheel zoom:
evince, fspot, chrome, firefox
digikam (it really has to be +/-, not just the key +/- is located on)
apps supporting Ctrl+/-, but not the wheel zoom:
eye of gnome
apps supporting wheel zoom only:
openoffice, scribus,
inkscape (+/- only without Ctrl)
if we switch to wheel zooming, we'd break one app and gain support for
four. but honestly, I'm starting to stop caring.
Cheers,
Peter
