Describe the problem
Changing the UI scaling via the Preferences panel works well,
but users who resort to shortcuts to zoom in/out the UI and font sometimes repeat the CMD/CTRL +/- to achieve the desired size.
When performing such shortcuts too rapidly the first action is not yet committed to the preferences file and the second one fails as the file has unsaved changes
To reproduce
see video
IDE2_scale_shortcut_noaudio.mp4
Expected behavior
Theoretically changes should be either queued or buffered before being committed to the preferences file,
Canceling any shortcut action until the file is saved might turn into a frustration moment.
I often hit the combo 3 times while teaching or doing webinars and I do want the 3 degrees of zoom being applied.
If I had to give it time to save it might take me 9 presses and it would look like 6 were ignored for unknown reasons
