I tried it and I see several problems: * as you mentioned, it zooms out too quickly * it is totally inaccurate, gimp seems cannot to shift the image, so the portion I am interested in is centered, in test case it was area near the edge of the image and after zooming out it was at the right border of the window * it requires a lot of clicking, dragging with LMB hold down is a hard to do for people with even mild disabilities * it requires to change the tool I am not saying this (above) functionality should be removed, but the new one added. I would then: * point out the area, no dragging * press + or - key End. I would get nice, smooth zoom, any change of the focus-area would be totally easy to, just move the mouse.
