viewing image s actual size disabling blur photo g

In the old Windows Picture and Fax Viewer it was really easy to view the image in it's original size. There was an "Actual Size" button. This is gone in the new Photo Gallery and the only way to zoom seems to be using the slider, but you can't tell when you've reached the original size.
Is there an "Actual Size" function in Photo Gallery similar to the old Windows Picture and Fax Viewer?
Also I notice that when images are opened there is a blurring effect when it loads and then it goes into focus. Is this something that can be disabled?
Thanks

Unfortunately the UI for this feature didn't make it in time for Beta 2. It will be there in the RC1\RTM release.
I believe the quick key does work in the beta 2 builds (CTRL+ALT+0).
