Yes I agree it shouldn't be that difficult. However, given that they originally intended the reader to remember the zoom but for some unfortunate mistake it is not doing it, means that the whole code is already there. It is just a matter of fixing a few lines of code to correct this error.
On the other hand dealing with annotation scaling would probably require a whole rewrite and, therefore, it would take longer.
Of course it would be excellent if we had this functionality in the near future as well...
