With the old method, you can stop using panning, but if you zoom in 
once, the graph item under mouse pointer may be different than before 
zooming (the before-zoom item is now in the middle). Advantages: no 
panning needed ever (the requested item is now in the middle). 
Disadvantages: if you want to zoom in again, you need to move cursor to 
the middle, otherwise you'll zoom into different part of graph than 
intended.

With "my"  method, the part of the graph pointed by cursor is the same 
before and after zoom. Advantages: you can zoom in and out, and you're 
still pointing the same graph item. Disadvantages: you need to pan if 
the item you want to zoom into is in the corner, otherwise the zoomed 
item is still in the corner.

Hard to choose...
