Well i'm new to impress so i'm not fully getting what you mean. Is 'main slide'
a master slide?

Well i'm assuming at one point or another an object will be selected and then
the people who asked for this behaviour change will be back saying it doesnt
work correctly. :) For users who want to zoom into a particular object, the
simplest means for them to achieve that would be the object zoom button.

I guess the easiest means to achieve the previous behaviour now is either by
keyboard (using the arrow keys with the plus and minus keys) or mouse (the
scrollbars and the zoom feature in the statusbar).
