I was about to add this ticket "Pressing command after scroll but during scroll
inertia causes inadvertent zooming", but I suppose you don't like duplicate
tickets. It's probably not a bug so much as an annoyance. This is confirmed on
OS X 10.7.4, LibreOffice 3.6.0.4.

This is primarily because Command+Tab is the Mac shortcut to switch
applications. I am routinely scrolling through a document and then switching to
another app. When I return, I'm on a very strange zoom level. For a while I
didn't understand why–it was confusing and felt like a bug. Now I understand
why it happens and how to prevent it, but it still catches me quite often.

I see two options:

1. Hopefully Easy: Change the shortcut to Option+Scroll instead. There is some
precedence: eg. Photoshop, Illustrator. The same annoyance doesn't occur in
those apps.

2. Probably less easy: Add some extra qualifying logic to Cmd-Scroll. For
example: Require Command to be pressed prior to the scrolling action, to
trigger the zooming function. OR You could stop scroll inertia from trigger a
zoom, in other words, only the physical scroll action plus a Command key press
would cause zooming.
