Actually, my Conkeror seems to have been in a mood yesterday.  It
stalled this morning, and I restarted it.  Now, in Google Maps, the +
& - keys actually do change the scale rather than merely the font
size.  Furthermore, the arrow keys scroll properly.

Thank you; I thought of that later myself, and indeed it works.  It is
not in the User Manual, tho.  Is there a way to get a list of all the
commands available under M-x -- perhaps even with documentation?  I
have discovered experimentally that M-x <tab> cycles thru them, and by
that means I discovered the welcome existence of M-x save-page as
well, but it would be nice to have something I could peruse at
leisure.

Thanks again to all for your promptness & patience.
