Description
### Custom Node Testing
- [x] I have tried disabling custom nodes and the issue persists (see [how to disable custom nodes](https://docs.comfy.org/troubleshooting/custom-node-issues#step-1%3A-test-with-all-custom-nodes-disabled) if you need help)
### Expected Behavior
I would expect zooming not to create a new node.
### Actual Behavior
A new Save Image node will be created nearby with each completed drag event.
### Steps to Reproduce
Use middle mouse drag to zoom the 3D preview.
### Debug Logs
```powershell
python main.py --disable-all-custom-nodes

Research direction
Start by running main.py with custom nodes disabled and reproduce the issue using a middle-mouse drag on the 3D preview. Trace the preview's drag handling and verify that completed zoom gestures no longer create Save Image nodes, while normal node creation still works.
