In few applications, it could be interesting to zoom with only one finger (web browser of course, but also gallery, ...). I mean zoom to different factors, not like it already works on web pages to feet text or images. The pitch-to-zoom works well too, but requires 1 hand to do the gesture while the other hold the phone.

There are already few gesture ideas:

• swirl, like on the N900: https://together.jolla.com/question/1040/swirl-gestures-to-zoom-inout-in-browserlike-n900/
• long press + move: https://together.jolla.com/question/1825/suggestion-one-handed-zoom-gesture-in-browser-gallery-etc/ . But I think that long press could be useful for other things (contextual menu, ...).
• like made on Android (in my Google Nexus 7, Android 4.4): double tap, but keep the 2nd tap pressed/hold, and then move up to zoom (or down to un-zoom).
