I'm not sure exactly how the new visible extent changes depending on the size of the box draw when a user draws a rectangle with the zoom-out tool. What I'd like to see is that after drawing a box then the view changes so that the pre-zoomed extent is now enclosed within the drawn box. This isn't currently what happens. Is that what other zoom-out mechanisms do? Time to go play with some other graphics packages...
