Coupla reasons I see for using text-only zoom:

1) you're using, say, a 1000px browser window. Zooming _all_ increases
the actual width of the page, so you have to utilize the horizontal
scrollbar.

2) some images (low-res) do not zoom well and become pixelated or
distorted.

3) what's the main reason for wanting to zoom in the first place? Web
author's tiny text that your eyes can't read.
