Designed like this, but it is configurable:

system-gschemrc:

; undo-panzoom string
;
; Controls if pan or zoom commands are saved in the undo list.  If this 
; is enabled then a pan or zoom command will be considered a command and
; can be undone.  If this is false, then panning and zooming is not saved
; in the undo list and cannot be undone.  Note, the current viewport 
; information is saved for every command, so the display will change to the
; viewport before a command is executed.
;
(undo-panzoom "enabled")
;(undo-panzoom "disabled")

You can change the setting from any gschemrc file which gschem loads,
e.g. ~/.gEDA/gschemrc or the gschemrc in your schematic's directory.
