Well, I would say that a big part of users has Extras-devel enabled, but still a good point. As Mieru really doesn't have any exotic dependencies, this issue should really be solved.

Is it my imagination, or could I zoom with the volume buttons in the previous version? Maybe I am mistaken and it was never there...

Edit: it was for turning pages. New method is even better.
I have investigated how to use the volume buttons from a Qt application and found this:

Maemo 5 zoom example
Example on Maemo Wiki

Not really sure how to do this from Python + PySide...
Some sort of an utility/wrapper written in C/C++ might be needed.

It should be there, in the graphics section.

IIRC, I typeset the English text first and then found that the font won't render kanji, so I found other roughly similar font and used it for the Japanese part.
