Don't open menu after pressing Alt for zoom
Pressing Alt on Windows brings focus to the top menu and pressing a following letter is interpreted as an access key, opening a menu. This in itself is good for accessibility and productivity.
However, in InDesign Alt is also pressed to zoom with the scroll view. I very often press W to toggle preview mode and very, very often press Alt to zoom. Several times an hour the Window menu flies open due to me pressing W after Alt has been pressed.
I suggest scrolling should move focus away from the top menu. This allows you to still use Alt access keys when you want to but without accidentally triggering them after using Alt for zooming.

Very disruptive for windows users, I second the above suggestion as a solution.

Voted. This is hugely disruptive to workflow.
