Why was the increase text keyboard+mouse shortcut combination removed?
To easily increase page text size in the previous version of Firefox, I used to be able to press control + option + two finger swipe up or down (trackpad equivalent to scrolling up or down). This functionality seems to have been removed in FF 17.0.1. Can it please be re-added?

You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
- browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
- browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
- browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
- browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
- browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false
These are the defaults for that action, so you can consider to change them to use the above posted commands.
- browser.gesture.swipe.down -> cmd_scrollBottom
- browser.gesture.swipe.up -> cmd_scrollTop
