Hi Bernie,

I've thought about the suggestion again for a few days and I have to
admit that the idea isn't all that bad. I would prefer a global
"indenpendent zoom levels" option though instead of specifying it for
each page. Could you do me a favor and move the ticket to the XCSoar
6.4 milestone and assign it to me? Thanks!
