Zoom options (Page Width, Auto, Page Fit) are based on document properties whatever the left pane pin status.
I don't think what you ask is useful.

i'm not sure we're speaking about the same thing
This bug is about the lateral (left) pane and is about minoring the space it takes considering there is a lot of empty space around thumbs. It's about reducing Firefox chrome and letting the maximum space to the document

I think it's fixed with the new UI in PDF Viewer 0.3.115.

That's better indeed, and it would have been ok in the middle of 2000ies. But at this time, the new pardigm is "less chrome is better" and i the pane could still be reduced to better fit thumbnails (see Evince for an exemple)
