I like to use the scroll whell to zoom in/out images by default, and use a modifier key to scroll up/down. 

Make it configurable? :-)
Please don't and let's find a reasonable standard behaviour. Having settings for every taste is the road to config hell.
That said, I'm with Gabriele. Personally, I usually have the "fit to window" option activated and therefore scrolling is not the most commonly done thing.
I don't know the current behaviour, but it'd be nice ShowImage would zoom always onto the mouse pointer.
It could also be argued that the rectangle selecting isn't a much used feature. If it's not, it may make more sense to be able to grab an image to move around with the left mouse button instead. 

You could have:
LMB - moving an image
MMB and mouse wheel - zooming
RMB - selecting
+1 on all accounts, MMB should be used for moving as well, but that's personal preference because WonderBrush works the same. ;-)
