I havn't actually read the new value. It is an indirect assumption from 
the observed behaviour in this example:

   1) original size = 600x600
   2) zoom factor set to 300%, new size = 1800x1800
   3) CSS size set to 600x600, but still 1800x1800
   4) CSS size set to 200x200, new size = 600x600
   5) zoom factor set to 100%, new size = 200x200

Exactly my opinion!
