Yes, I replaced the feature wholesale because the API used was better suited 
for a real zoom.

I'm still not sure how to express that difference in the API though...
It seems to me the most prominent difference (apart from replaced objects 
scaling) between the two zoom mode is how page fit to screen or not.

So font-scaling mode could be expressed either as a fit-to-width zoom mode, or 
just an "increase/decrease font size" command (which is a good thing to have 
too IMO, as in most situations you don't care about image scaling at all).

I tend to prefer the latter, as fancy fit-to-width option could be implemented 
in the other zoom mode too... so I'm tempted to go with

  void setFontSizesScale(int percent)
  int fontSizesScale() const

with just similar effects as the old 

  void setZoomFactor(int percent)
  int zoomFactor() const

Probably but what makes you so peremptory about that?

Opera uses it's zooming with ctrl++/ctrl+-, but I agree that it's less 
invasive, as it's a mixed mode zoom that does attempt to fit-to-width for a 
certain zoom range (I'm experimenting with that too).

Nevertheless I think zooming is best suited for ctr + mousewheel, where zoom 
could be made to center on the node under mouse, making for a nice 
instinctive zooming.

can you elaborate on that? what is it up to?
