Recover from a 'stuck' zoom-in condition

I was playing around with the zoom feature found in the Universal Access panel of the System Preferences. I had zoomed in by pressing Command-Option-+, only to find I couldn't zoom out -- I was stuck. Thinking quickly, I knew you could toggle the ability to zoom with Command-Option-8, so I pressed that key combination and zoomed out very fast. This feature is probably utterly useless, but it looks really cool.

[robg adds: I had this happen once in 10.2, but haven't used zoom much in 10.3 yet, so I don't know if it's still possible to get stuck. In my case, I think it was because I had played around with the "min" and "max" settings under the Zoom Options button.]
