I will work hard on getting nightlies with the trackpad patch applied,
in the DEBUG/trackpad/ directory.

Hi everyone,
I am using a 5k IMac with a standard PC logitech mouse. I
have the nightly build 5547 installed.
I do not experience any problems with zooming in GAL.
(Besides the already reported bug with the F2 button) What
I do experience is the lack of rats nest. Sometimes when
zooming there is a remainder of a short rats nest wire but
that is basically it.
I use a Kensington Expert Mouse (read: best pointing device
EVER, all others just suck) with my desktop Mac (and the work
PC). I mapped one of the buttons to be the middle mouse
button. It works well.
I'm not at my MacBook Pro, but I could swear that there is a
way to set up a modifier key/mouse click combination to
emulate the middle button. I'll check later.
I also have the GAL rats-nest issue Piotr mentions.

The graphics program Blender uses modifier key/mouse click
combinations. See:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.4/Manual/Interface/Keyboard_and_Mouse
The following table shows the combos used:
2-button Mouse Apple Mouse
LMB Template-LMB.png LMB Template-LMB.png LMB
Template-LMB.png (mouse button)
MMB Template-MMB.png AltLMB Template-LMB.png ⌥ OptLMB
Template-LMB.png (Option/Alt key + mouse button)
RMB Template-RMB.png RMB Template-RMB.png ⌘ CmdLMB
Template-LMB.png (Command/Apple key + mouse button)
Unfortunately for me, these don't work with KiCad on a trackpad or
magic mouse equipped Mac OSX 10.10.2
( With the command key down and rubbing the magic mouse lightly in
any direction, a chip footprint can be panned to the left and back
to center on pcbnew. No modifier key combo seems to enable up down
panning.)
With the option key down, mouse motions draw an outline box -
perhaps a group select command.
Thanks for all your comments. Bob G
