AFAIK yes.
“Normal” mice seem to produce much less events than Mac devices.

Especially my MacBook touchpad is very sensitive and usual zoom is pretty useless with it.
If you only slightly touch it you scroll min to max.

For zoom there is even some special #ifdef’d “slowdown” in the code.
It works quite OK with a Magic/Mighty Mouse, but still is bad with touchpads.

With only native Mac gear KiCad has IMHO a pretty bad UI experience (compared to native OS X programs).
