Zoom in/out while dragging wire
Sometimes, while linking artboards, I have the need to zoom out to find the destination artboard.
I click the origin anchor (it turns blue), zoom out and keep the destination artboard visible, then I click the blue anchor and link to the artboard I want.
It'd be nice if I'd be able to zoom in/out using CTRL + Mouse Scroll while dragging the linking line.

I have a workaround where I dragged the wire to the nearest artboard and then zoom out and drag it from there. But this is still time-consuming man.

100% support this. Do you know how difficult/time-consuming it is to wire up a large and complex file with various artboards? It is ridiculous how a product from Adobe who designs products for designers for decades now would not be thought about this or have this in place. You simply bring features in from previous applications. But it seems Adobe decided to just throw everything they know out the window with XD.
It is crazy how software so great and should be efficient at mockups/prototyping has so many bugs lack features that actually wastes time. Trust me I am from Photoshop/Illustrator only Ui mockup days. So I really do appreciate XD but come on man. These issues are killing us.
Imagine designing a website in less than an hour to spend 3 hours prototyping it.

Problem:
to select the element you want to create the interaction for, you mostly need to zoom in to select it properly.
When dragging the interaction, you cannot zoom-in/out anymore. Unless I'm missing something.Suggested solution:
It would be nice, while dragging the interaction, if you can still use ctrl/cmd + scroll, to zoom in and out and find the target artboards easily.

using Adobe XD on Windows (latest version)
