In the limited testing that I am doing, there appears to be no change 
from the last test.

I was unable to crash the Cairo view of pcbnew.

The only changes I can recommend are:

  Reduce the sensitivity of the two finger zoom action on both eeschema 
and pcbnew

  When two finger SHIFT and CMD panning of pcbnew using OpenGL and 
Cairo, stop the panning when the edge of the paper comes into the 
viewing window. This works fine using the Default view.

Put a check mark to the left of the menu entries to indicate which view 
is active as in:

     View->

\f1 \uc0\u10004 \u65039            <--- This is a checkmark in the Mac 
Textedit rtf document - codes might be useful.
\f0     Switch Canvas to Default
         Switch Canvas  o OpenGL
         Switch Canvas to Cairo
