Getting fed up with microsoft edge but on a small touchscreen tablet/laptop its the only one that does smooth and proper pinch to zoom like iOS and Android browsers do. Has this feature still not been implemented yet?

Note functional usable multi-touch display behavior (for most websites, including google maps) can be accomplished in IE 11 by defining the following user CSS in IE accessibility options: body { -ms-touch-action: manipulation; }

However, Edge does not support CSS to accomplish this (or moreover, disable the very troublesome tap to zoom feature), firefox doesn't manipulate websites properly, and IE is considered an obsolete/insecure browser. In FF the main issue seems to b that pinch zoom is tied to the browser settings instead of manipulating the web sites (for example, in google maps pinch zoom changes the browser zoom setting instead of manipulating the map). Please fix this. We don't change the browser zoom level that often, and hot keys/drop down menus work fine for this.
