1) the most obvious and easy way: make a kindlet
2) we know that kindle supports hyperlinks and all in a book, so why not put buttons in a pdf, book or prc to make it work just like komic
3) look at the whole code that is running on the kindle, if you see anything that disables features in waf apps, disable it. I know you have already tried disabling a option but might be there are more.
4) reverse engineer the kindle os and try to understand every bit of code :0. ONCE YOU HAVE GRASPED ALL OF IT,START MODIFYING THE PARTS THAT YOU THINK MIGHT BE DISABLING PINCH TO ZOOM.
5) compare the code of the kindle os 5.1.x and 5.0.x. as 5.0.x had pinch to zoom why not fiind the differences understand them and disable/enable the ones that might be causing the problem.
NOTE: I don't know if these work. these are just guesses. try at your own risk!!!

The kindlet suggestion is something not new to me: komic is really going to be a kindlet, but I don't know when! First of all I need some spare time to learn Java again then I'll need to buy some manual to learn everything I don't know about java!
(And this really isn't the right time as I'm in a hurry to get my degree and I'm also out of money!

)
As regards the other suggestions, I don't really want to "reverse engineer" an OS just to bring back pinch-to-zoom!
I know where the problem should be and I think the best way to solve this is to study the browser WAF (as it has pinch-to-zoom)!!
You can do this also by yourself!!!
Just keep waiting, I'll solve this!!
Otherwise, try the stock imageviewer from Amazon!!!
