I think this would be nice. In our early animated mockups, this was actually
the intent (in addition to the zoom). This should work in all zoom levels
and views. I think doing that would be beneficial even with the zoom, and
might allow us to show the zoom only on devices capable of handling it.

I don't know where else this video lives, so here's a link to my copy of it:
