The fix for that is to update the W3C Validator to just issue a Warning
for zoom:1 or even better to have a setting to ignore it totally. Note
that in either case, it is ONLY zoom:1 that is special cased - Any other
zoom (such as zoom:1.5 or zoom:2) would still get an error.

The fix (if there is a fix) is to approach the CSS WG and ask whether,
in their opinion, the introduction of a "zoom" property wih a required
value of "1" would be compatible with their aims for the evolution of
CSS.  If they say "yes", than ask if they are therefore willing to
adopt it into the specification; if they say "no", then continue to
treat any document containing "zoom: 1" with extreme caution and assume
that it will cease to function correctly at some point in time.

In no circumstances should the validator ever report as correct
a document that deviates one iota from the published specification;
once it does that, even for just one special case, it ceases to be
a validator and becomes just another piece of pragmatic junk.
