    Zoom and Stretch seem to be off of different menu entry points now.

    Which particular option do you think is missing?

    If you particular key mappings don't quite work right any more
you might want to try looking through the menu. I see something like
this as a quirk with one of my frontends. Zoom is now mapped to aspect 
ratio despite the fact that everything should be identical. For that
box I use the menus rather than my previously defined "hotkeys".
