I too would like the ability to easily zoom in more.  Assigning this to the
mouse scroll wheel would be even better.

I also have the same problem moving things when setting the grid to less
than 1 LDU.

A couple more requests:

When moving a type 5 line, only then endpoint move.  The second pair of
points should also move.  This makes bulk moving of sections of a part
difficult.

There seems to be a rounding error on the x/y/z display (lower left hand
corner).  If you set the grid to 0.1 LDU and move the cursor around, you
will see that the numbers go -1.1, -1, 1, 1.1.  It never shows anything
between -1 and 1.

Other than these minor problems, this is a great program!
