Asset Browser: Adding a shortcut to resize the thumbnails

What I always LOVED with Blender was the flexibility of its interface. Flexibility thanks to its separation in multiple zones, that we can resize all we want, and also with its shortcuts, and the possibility to scale the interface of almost any zones.

When Blender announced a new system of assets, I really was excited about it. But when I started to learn how to use it, I had to face quite often moments when I wanted to see the thumbnails bigger, or smaller... so, as I do when I resize any zone of the interface, I pressed CTRL + MMC, to resize the thumbnails, but... No, that's literally impossible.

So, here, I'm coming with that special request. Please, allow us to resize the thumbnails of the Asset browser easily, with the basic shortcut that allows us to resize almost everything.

(And please, offer that shortcut for the Asset Shelf we now have for the brushes and the Pose library!!!)

not the smoothness of MMB, but this add-on can help you: extensions.blender.org/add-ons/browser-scroll-resize/

Thanks! Well, it's helpful, indeed, but not what I'm really wanting. It doesn't work on the asset shelf, only on the Asset browser, and since it uses the scroll of the mouse, it can't be used with a graphic tablet (for when I'm sculpting, painting the texture, etc...). That still will be helpeful for me anyway, so thanks for suggesting that extension, really. ^^
