hi, 


There's a context menu with options at the Zoom Factor...
if you right click in the "110%" (or any number%) field...

To those options one could be added:

"apply for all open documents"
"apply for all windows"
or anything...

It would be extremely useful..

(Of course, you don't always want zoom factor to be the same in all Writer windows... but sometimes you do, and it'd be very comfortable to just check "make it the same"...)

Why?

In general I disagree with making simple dialogs more complex, as you do by adding another confirmation button. Not to speak about the long labels.
