Encontré una nueva solución, diferente de cualquier otra que haya visto, al deshabilitar el zoom nativo de iOS y, en su lugar, implementar la funcionalidad de zoom en JavaScript.
Sérgio Lopes ofrece un excelente trasfondo sobre las otras soluciones al problema de zoom / orientación: una solución al famoso error de zoom de iOS en el cambio de orientación a retrato .

// Without zoomfix focus, after changing orientation and zoom a few times, the iOS viewport scale functionality sometimes locks up (and completely stops working).
// The reason I thought this hack would work is because showing the keyboard is the only way to affect the viewport sizing, which forces the viewport to resize (even though the keyboard doesn't actually get time to open!).
// Also discovered another amazing side effect: if you have no meta viewport element, and focus()/blur() in gestureend, zoom is disabled!! Wow!

Podría mejorarse, pero para mis necesidades evita los principales inconvenientes que ocurren con todas las demás soluciones que he visto. Hasta ahora solo lo he probado usando Safari móvil en un iPad 2 con iOS4.
El enfoque () / desenfoque () es una solución para evitar el bloqueo ocasional de la función de zoom que puede ocurrir después de cambiar la orientación y hacer zoom unas cuantas veces.
La configuración de document.body.style fuerza un repintado de pantalla completa, lo que evita problemas intermitentes ocasionales en los que el repintado falla gravemente después del zoom.
