Description
According to #3324 I found a problem with the scale value. While zoomed out and moving the map, the zoom scale varies from 923 to 12666 km. See the attached image.
(used projection is merkator, but it is the same with others)

- Type changed from defect to enhancement
The zoom slider value depends on the displayed bounds (north, west, east, south). Generally it is correct that different map positions results in different zoom values. If the border of world is displayed it is difficult to display a zoom level because there are may possibilities. Should josm display zoom level of the equator or of the poles (like in this picture)? I think the right solution would be something like this: Display no value at all if north and south border is displayed. Otherwise the zoom level of the area covered by the world and the display should be used.
It is not #3324, I meant #3016.
