Looks like a reasonnable demand that could be solved by setting a shortcut or
by adding a toolbar toolbutton.

Here're some thoughts and way of working.

1. Please, please, please: DO NOT change the Ctrl+0 shortcut target! In Writer,
this shortcut formats a paragraph in style Body Text. For people who are
writing much, changing the behaviour would be a real problem.

2. The way I work with Writer (ie, long technical documents with many styles,
images, tables, etc.)

I've got rid of the Formatting toolbar and exclusively use the Formatting
(Styles) one instead. I have customized it and, among others, added three zoom
toolbuttons: "Optimal", "Page width" and "Entire page" values.
I use "Optimal" when typing, "Page width" when correcting and "Entire page"
when reviewing the layout.
This integrates very well with my workflow and makes zoom changes very easy.

@khindall: such customization with the 100% zoom is of course possible, as
already suggested by Heiko. You may add an accelerator (shortcut) or a toolbar.
-> Tools > Customize, Toolbar (or Keyboard) tab. For toolbars, you may add the
new toolbutton to any toolbar of your choice or even create a new one.
