I'm still not too convinced about letting the designer choose a zoom
level. First of all, I think it doesn't make sense since if you want
something twice as big by default, you just design it as being twice
as big. Secondly, I think it overlooks the actual reason _why_ the
designer might want to set the default scaling factor. Is it to ensure
that the rendering is not too small on a high-res display, or what?
