- Route the actions through item 3's `QAction` conversion so they appear in the
View menu, which also makes the reset discoverable.
+### Outcome (done)
+
+Built as described, and both of the plan's stated risks turned out not to
+exist. Probed rather than assumed:
+
+- **The application `QAction` wins over Chromium's native zoom key.** The plan
+ called this "the one real risk in the item". It is not one: the action fires
+ and the web view's own handling never runs, so the tracked factor cannot
+ diverge from what is on screen.
+- **Zoom survives `setHtml()`.** The plan expected the view might reset it on
+ navigation and asked for a reapply per render. Not needed; the web view keeps
+ the factor, so it is the single source of truth and there is no second copy.
+- **Do not test key reachability with synthetic input.** A probe using
+ `QTest::keyClick()` reported `Ctrl++` as a dead binding, and a test was
+ written asserting it. Both were wrong: `Ctrl++` is exactly what the `+` key
+ emits on an Italian layout, confirmed against the real keyboard, and it is
+ the shipped default. Whether a symbol needs Shift is a property of the
+ layout, not of Qt, and `keyClick()` reproduces neither. The test now only
+ checks that every default parses.
+- `Ctrl+=` is a second binding for reset, skipped when `[keys]` gives `Ctrl+=`
+ to something else. Ctrl+wheel zooms and Ctrl+middle-click resets, both
+ filtered by ancestry from an application-level filter: the events land on an
+ internal `QQuickWidget` the web view creates lazily, so a filter installed on
+ the view itself never sees them.
+
+**A pre-existing bug surfaced while adding the config key.** `[general]`
+entries were read as `general/<key>`, which matches nothing: QSettings' INI
+backend treats a section literally named `[general]` as its own fallback
+section and strips the prefix. `notmuch_config` had therefore never worked.
+Both keys are now read without the prefix; the file format the user writes is
+unchanged. Regression test in `test_config`.
