Provide XAML Designer mouse wheel to zoom settings like in Blend

Add setting to change key modifier to zoom with mouse wheel.
Now there is only default Blend behavior possible in VS 11 designer - scrolling mouse wheel is zooming content.
I use laptop for development and use touchpad. So scrolling to zoom is absolutely unusable.
In Blend i can set to scrool with Wheel but zoom with Ctrl + Wheel. It works great with touchpad, so I can zoom with "pinch to zoom" and scroll vertically with "two finger scroll" and scroll horisontally with Shift + "two finger scroll".
This is currently unavailable in VS 11 :( !

        Thanks for the feedback. You'll be happy to know we've changed this behavior in VS to use Ctrl + Wheel in VS. You'll see this in a future release.
