they decided to map it to alt+Enter ...
Here is an extension that maps it back to ctl+enter :

I installed the extension and it works, thanks.

I had to upload the .xpi file (which I downloaded with MSIE because nothing
happened in Mozilla and FireFox, is this maybe another bug in FireFox?) to my
server and then run a code (InstallTrigger.install...) to install the extension.
