Description
Reported in Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/354447
"In gnome-terminal the 'View --> Zoom In' menu item lists the key binding of "Ctrl++" in the same way as Mozilla Firefox does.
However, on for example a pc105 keyboard (en_GB variant), you technically need to either use 'Shift+Ctrl+=' or 'Ctrl+KPLUS' (the numpad +) to cause it to zoom in. So the referenced keybinding can be slightly confusing to the novice user.
Mozilla Firefox resolves this by also binding 'Ctrl+=' to the same function so users can easily discover the feature without much thought. As such, most users have a learned response of holding Ctrl and hitting the - and = keys to zoom in and out. Gnome Terminal should probably do the same to make it easier to discover the feature."
