One of the really nice things about MS Word is the toolbar "button" where you
can type a view magnification into (as a number, in percent).

OOo doesn't seem to have this, but instead has View -> Zoom -> Variable -> Type
number -> OK, which takes a *lot* more time to invoke, and is a pain when
rapidly switching between different zoom levels.

I just found out that (at least on Win32), you can hold CTRL and move the
scroll-wheel to adjust the zoom level. That's very useful! However, finding out
that one can do this isn't easy.

My suggestions:

1) In the View -> Zoom dialog box, include a piece of static text indicating the
CTRL+mouse_scroll_wheel can be used, or pop up a tooltip or similar to prompt
the user.

and/or:

2) Add either the MS-word style editable % view box to a toolbar, and/or add
Adobe Acrobat viewer-style zoom in/out buttons to a toolbar.
