Description
## Feature request
Please support zooming markdown canvas content with **Ctrl + mouse wheel** on Windows.
## Current behavior
The GitHub Copilot app markdown canvases can be zoomed with keyboard shortcuts such as **Ctrl + +** and **Ctrl + -**, but holding **Ctrl** and scrolling the mouse wheel does not zoom the markdown canvas content.
## Expected behavior
When focus is in a markdown canvas, **Ctrl + mouse wheel up/down** should zoom in/out, matching the existing keyboard zoom behavior.
## Why this matters
Markdown canvases are often used for plans, notes, and rendered markdown review. I frequently want to temporarily make the text larger while reading or editing markdown. Ctrl+mouse-wheel zoom is a common Windows interaction pattern in browsers, Office apps, and editor/document surfaces, so it is an expected shortcut for text-heavy views.
## Possible scope
The narrow request is for markdown-related canvases, including plan markdown and markdown viewer/editor canvases. It may also be worth considering whether the same interaction should apply consistently across all text-heavy Copilot app canvases.
