> From what I can tell, web maps commonly use an interaction model that the web doesn't support natively: panning and zooming a single element.

This was also the interaction model for SVG in the plug-ins era (Adobe, Corel etc) but then switched to scrollbars (and no real zoom) in the native browser era. It is still a useful and more convenient way to explore a rich graphic.

So I'm in favor of supporting this interaction model without hacks.
