In the upcoming version you will (again, as this used to work before,
but got broken somehow) be able to zoom using Ctrl+scroll wheel, as in
many other applications.

However, for _any_ action in the menu, you can right-click on the menu
entry and select "Configure shortcut". (This does not work on Windows,
where you will have to use Settings->Configure Keyboard Shortcuts,
instead.)
