Ok, since gnome-shell has a screen magnifier let's say it's an unity issue and it should have one as well ** Project changed: gnome-control-center => unity ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Wishlist ** Summary changed: - Accessibility keybindings don't work + Un

While the Compiz Zoom plugin might be appropriate for advanced users, modulo the significant caveats you mentioned, it requires manually configuring Compiz with ccsm, which is not installed by default, and which is beyond the capability of most users.

The best solution for users of magnificatino in Oneiric is the COmpiz eZoom plugin, however it does not have focus tracking support, and does not magnify any parts of Unity, i.e the panel, dash, and laucner all stay the same size, whilst the rest of the user's desktop is magnified. We don't have a

In Oneiric, that package exists but is not installed by default a

I'm not convinced that this is a GNOME bug. First of all, it doesn't appear in other distributions (at least not in Fedora). Second, given the fairly radical changes that Ubuntu has made to the user interface in recent versions (e.g. Unity), I wouldn't be surprised if loss of Accessibility function
