Great news for a large number of Firefox users. The most recent Firefox 3 nightly (a.k.a. Gran Paradiso) to be released today will include full page zoom support.
For years and since the days of now defunct Mozilla application suite, Gecko-based browsers users have claimed for full page zoom that scales images as well as text. The day has finally come as bug 4821, filed on April 1999, has been tagged as RESOLVED FIXED.
There are still related bugs to iron and proper user interface to be decided and added, but definitely the largest part is done and with months ahead for final Firefox 3 release I think it’s safe to count on it for the next release.

But will it be optional? Zooming both text and pictures was one of the most annoying features of Opera for me.
I’ve had autosize (fit to width) working in FF2, IE6, IE7, OP9, Safari3, and NS9 working for a couple of months. It has a drop down control with which to go manual and set size, perfect print, remember settings, etc. all without a plug-in.
I think this feature is an addon value
yes you can zoom just text by checking it in view–>zoom
