This is a UA failing. I've been talking to colleagues about things like this recently. It's important to provide something like an undo, especially for devices where the input surface is flaky and it's easy to accidentally do something (like ruin the zoom). The fix is to improve the UA, not to tell the UA not to support the feature.
