Nobody in their right mind would ever want to zoom & pan a map on a website, eh?

1) I agree. Apps have maps, but most websites?

2) Zooming and panning can be done without WPA. At most some basic JS, although I think you can do the same via HTML+CSS.

3) The old way of zooming panning was buttons for zooming and panning. Those worked fine. In face ,they worked better than zooming and panning buggy implementations.
