Hi Cor,

Also I changed the ZOOM_FACTOR from 1.1 to 2^(1/4), it feels better
here, the 1.1 means way too much wheel rotation to increase / decrease

I also thought that 1.2 was a better fit so fine with me.

Hmm, the issue was that the zoom factor also is used for the + and - in 
the zoom slider at the status bar. Jumping from 100 to 125% or so, is 
way to fast. Of course just IMHO ..

What do others think ?

In my experience, I was never really using the +/-, because the +-5%
step always made me clicking like mad to achieve what I needed, and in
most cases I just fell back to using the slider directly (dragging the
indicator); so I believe increasing the step for the +/- is the right
thing to do here too - but maybe it is just me :-)

Well, I'm with Cor on this one - I use that a fair bit also and the
finer step is usually what I am looking for.

However as you say there are times it's a real pain and with the slider
it's rather had to get precise control.
 
Instead of increasing the step amount by five fold I would rather see
the +/- auto-repeat if you hold the mouse button down. Not sure how that
would fair with keyboard bound users though.

Best wishes,
