works great!! More than expected..

Almost better than Mouse Pinch-To-Zoom ! (except for the red borders) I wish we could lower even more the "Strength" bar for as much precision. (Always the math flaw that is very rough around the middle zoom and overly precise and slow when getting very far or close) If only it would work like a normal zoom : I hold to change zoom on a page, else it just has to keep the zoom but the scroll is normal! (At least it doesn't interfere with the middle button to move around on the page !) Quick press (Shift probably the best key BTW) to reset zoom, if you want, but that "Hold to zoom" parameter is flawed by design. I don't want to keep holding the key, nor I want to keep changing zoom after I release the key, that should be obvious. My touchpad is broken, I'm looking for the same functions...
