Hi Aaron, A scrolling field is controlled by a scroll bar. A text field with font size is (or should be) controlled by the listbox of font sizes - see the one in the GNOME standard font chooser. A spreadsheet cell that is the output of a function of other spreadsheet cells is controlled by them.
The first two examples you cite below wouldn't be controlling situations. The zoom, on the other hand, is an interesting question for me. I'd say controlling is appropriate there.
