Let your macro make a point selection at the zoom center and then let
the macro call "zoom to selection".

Panning is a new aspect, that you didn't mention before...

As others have stated and AFAIK a mouse click for defining the center
of zoom is not implemented. Of course you may try to implement it. I
propose to consider "zoom to selection" and perhaps the corresponding
Java code may help implementing the desired functionality.
