Hi Rich re: #2 - zoom selected / zoom everything - I'm sorry I don't quite follow what's tripping you up on that one...

Those are not broken out to script as separate functions, just one "reset" function.

But it toggles between selected and everything every time you trigger it so it doesn't really matter which one you pushed last, just watch the screen as you trigger it and if you do not go to the one you want at first just trigger it again and then you will be there.

Also if you adjust the view in any way by any kind of pan, zoom, or (in 3D view) rotate, then the next reset will target selected objects.

You'll only get zoom to all on the first click if you previously did zoom to selected and have not adjusted the view in any way since that last time. Normally there is a lot of view adjusting going on while modeling, so typically the first press will do a zoom selected.

Is the problem that you're trying to do a super fast "double click" on the button or something like that? Don't do it like that - click it once and watch what you get and if it's not what you wanted then click again.
