Adjustable scroll wheel zoom increment

Adjustable zoom increments for the mouse scroll wheel. Zooming in and out requires much more scrolling compared to other CAD packages. It would be great if the increment could be at least doubled to speed up zooming and reduce scroll wheel use. Even when utilising the middle mouse button to pan and zoom extents, the scroll when still gets a lot of use. This could help people with RSI issues.

Also, keyboard zooming can be done by '-' and '+' on the numpad or 'F4' and 'F5'.

'-' and '+' can't be used while a command is active as their character will be input, however these keyboard buttons are good as their zoom is based on the position of the mouse cursor.

'F4' and 'F5' can be used while a command is active, which is good, however the zoom is to the centre of the view regardless of the position of the mouse cursor.

It would be nice to have keyboard commands that can both zoom while a command is active, and to the position of mouse cursor (like the scroll wheel). A lot of zooming is done while a command is active, such as 'Enquire Bearing and Distance' and 'Add Line' so this would be useful.
