Hi Ted,

for what I know there is the so called 'Tile slider' for tile services. 
But the scales defined for that one come from (I think the first) tile 
service that you call. You can off course create your own tile-service, 
add it as a background, and in that way have YOUR predefined scales. But 
that is probably a little over the top :-)

I am not aware 'predefined scales' of other data formats of services, 
but please point me to it if I'm wrong..

Otherwise, maybe make it a feature request (after searching if it maybe 
already is ;-) )...

Regards,
