Comment (by zjames):

 I looked at how the MapGuide ajax viewer handles this and I can't see a
 way to achieve it within the context of OpenLayers without essentially
 replacing the OpenLayers view with a map image. OpenLayers does have a
 scaling mode but I can't see a way to invoke it that does not fire a
 request for the map itself, creating the unnecessary draws we're trying to
 avoid. Things only get more complicated with tiled layers in the view. I
 didn't test, but does the ajax viewer support this scaling with tiles?
