Mouse scroll problem

Hi,
I am just discovering SpringTA, I have many problems but I think one is a bug (or a bad design) : the center of dezooming is the center of the screen, while the center of zooming is the mouse pointer. This is very disturbing : if you zoom / unzoom, you are not at the same location
Please confirm the problem

Not a bug, a feature.

Not a feature, a decision.

OK, thank you manolo_, I'll try.
I don't understand the advantage of this behavior, it's totally disturbing : either both should be screen centered, either both should be mouse centered, but not one for zooming, one for dezooming.
(moreover, scroll_up unzooms and scrool_down zooms, it should be the opposite)

One of my fav things in trying to get new players into Spring was teaching them how to regedit the "ScrollWheelSpeed" key to get zoom up scroll/mousewheel up / unzoom on mousewheen down.
Also included tutorial on C's two complement negative integer encoding because they think you are trying to haxx them if you tell them to set it to 0xFFFFFFxx...
Lucky they made it configurable, |UI Options|->|scrollwheel speed| in springsettings set to negative value solves that ~_~ still retarded.
tldr some [Evil Dev] has an irrational desire for broken scrolling, feature not bug;_;
