I have reproduced the usability problems in the original version of ubiquity, 1.8.7, as included with the 8.04 release. I then enabled the proposed repository and installed the current ubiquity in hardy- proposed, 1.8.11, and the usability of the timezone chooser is very much improved, the delays are pronounced enough to make the tool much more usable and less jarring.
I am still seeing the mouse pointer being in the wrong location after the chooser zooms in, but this appears to be because the mouse pointer is not moved to the center of the image after zooming, but remains in place (e.g. if you move to US/Alaska in the upper left corner, the chooser zooms in on it, but the pointer remains in the upper left). In my opinion, this is not a significant enough usability problem to block this fix from going in.
