The shortcut for superscripts is ctrl + shift + [+], this should be improved because it does not work in all browsers.

Unfortunately, at least when using Chrome, this shortcut will instead zoom the screen in, but does not change the text to superscript.

ctrl + shift + [-] for subscripts does work for some reason.

Thank you for reporting this. This is a bug with the shortcut in the Windows version of Chrome (it works as expected on Mac) that we are tracking internally. We have not yet had a chance to investigate whether it is something we can address or if it needs to be fixed in Chrome.

I am going to close this since it is a bug rather than an idea or enhancement request. Please see the ArcGIS Ideas Submission Guidelines and Statuses.
