Dear Brynn, I can't find anything to suggest it can save zooms. As long as inkscape is closed properly, there's no zoom data saved anywhere. And this is the same issue with undos. The data needs to be saved somewhere and you have to decide if you want it in the svg file or in ~/.cache/inkscape/ etc. The svg file will explode in size and the cache dir will make undos only work on their original machine. Making it optional is always popular. Filtering out useless undos also good. But if we wanted it. It would be a full project. Maybe a GSoC or similar.

The zoom isn't saved, so the things you see are artifacts and their issue isn't critical enough at the moment. Unless it's causing a crash, I think any of the ideas should be added to the bug report with detailed information and attachments.
