Well, in order to accomplish this you won't be able to "abuse" the zoom 
feature without actually zooming at the same time.
However we'd like to have a "time travel" mode in Marble with a time travel 
slider and such.
It's on our TODO and we'll work on having that feature (possibly for Marble 
0.10.0).

For now the only workaround is this: Create different dgmls for different points 
of time and then switch between them. That's the only viable workaround I can 
see at the moment. 
This workaround is also being used here:

Don't hesitate to post screenshots if you're successful with your panorama 
pictures :-)

Regards,
Torsten
