The zoom to Selection script included with the Unofficial patch has been improved.

Changes:

Can zoom to a single edge selection.
Can zoom to 3d encapsulated objects.

Update:
January 2012
Improved zoom to single edge, one line of code from an earlier fix was wrong.
Zoom to all objects in the scene via ctrl-shift-double middle click.

How can I asign a shortcut key to the zoom to selection instead of using the MMB???... (I don't have one)

Update: Feb 2015

Change so it only zooms one 3D view instead of all open 3D views

Good update. I knew it did that, but didn't... report it. Oops!

Its me again...
Can you take a peak at your Zoom to Selection script?
activeWindowOnly is not working or I am miss understanding it's use.
Is it possible to get this to work when viewing from a scene Camera.
If it is to complicated, no big deal. It works with the Eye Camera just fine.

Hmm, don't think I ever tried it with a camera view. I'll let you know.
The activeWindowOnly looks like something that was started but never finished. I don't know if it works with widgets, but I did add it to my upcoming UU4Clinton scripts to zoom one window or zoom all windows.

I am not sure of the disadvantage but I was thinking that Lights and Cameras should be filtered out.
For me, Zoom to Selection is really useful when Point Editing

If you don't want to zoom to them don't include them in your selection.

Checked and couldn't find any way to do it. Cameras seem to be tied to the view by invisible magic.

I can get it to work by changing the Look at Selection2 command
RsTool.LookAtSelection('%WIN_ID%');
RsTool.LookAtSelection('{2C152F81-45A2-4035-8896-9E49D60C8A7A}');
RsTool.LookAtSelection('{4FF5F5FB-44E0-47B1-AA47-C40205FE113F}');

Problem is the Camera View WinID can change.

Edit: It is looking like RsTool.LookAtSelection('%WIN_ID%'); is the only command needed.
