Cursor displayed like photoshop and painter?

Is there a way to display the cursor size as the same size (shape) as the current brush?
If I have a square brush of a 30 points size, I would like to know its size because if I don't it is difficult to paint correctly. Thanks.
By the way, what are the shortcuts for rotating and moving and zooming the canvas?

moving = Alt + leftmouse (pressing your pen down) & moving your pen
zooming out = Alt + right mouse button (front switch of pen) & moving pen left
zooming in = Alt + right mouse button (front switch of pen) & moving pen right
rotate canvas: forgot what the default shortcut is but you can create your own shortcuts using CTRL-k look for:
zoom:Rotate +15 and
zoom:Rotate -15

rotate canvas = Ctrl + Alt + leftmouse (pressing your pen down) & moving your pen
rotate canvas = "Shift + Page Up" -> +15°, "Shift + Page Down" -> -15° or "Insert" to Reset

The search option in the shortcuts dialog window can be handy to highlight specific words.

edit: I just remembered a discussion about having the cursor reflect brush size a while ago. Here was a "per brush" solution that works for some brushes...
cursor=brush size

I dodn't know I could search for keywords very useful.
So displaying the size of the brushes is not possible as a built in feature right. Thank you
And Thank you Zigotto I was losing my time searching for some category so I had a hard time finding them ^^;
I have another question : when we rotate the canvas the image resize automatically, this is really frustrating, is there a way to make it stay the same size?

uncheck the [F] button in the project window (right side bottom)

I made a hand-dandy button with which I can quickly reset the frame back to it's default position:
Key: Zoom: Rotation Reset
Key: Zoom: Fit
