The ZoomContributionViewItem.createCombo() method does not select any item in the combo by default. As a result, if you use ZoomContributionViewItem on a view toolbar, the combo appears blank by default and does not tell you what the current zoom level is.

Fix:
Copy the lines from refreshCombo() that select an item in the combo.

Workaround:
Since the methods and field are private, you can't workaround by subclassing. Instead, you can wait until the view is visible and then poke the class:
  xyz.asyncExec(new Runnable() {
	public void run() {
		toolbarZoomContributionViewItem.zoomChanged(1);
	}
  });
