Using my offering of a different solution as an argument _for_ your solution is
incorrect. It is clear that you want zoom to work, and rotate to almost work. I
disagree with the notion of implementing a fairly complex but still incomplete
MT solution to that end alone. I am sure there is a third alternative here.
