Not really. It also waits for mouse input.
That's the reason (I suspect) that the function is written the
way it is written. It processes mouse events in the else clause

        else if (waitResult == WAIT_OBJECT_0+1)
         {
             MSG msg;

             while (PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE))
             {
                 TranslateMessage(&msg);
                 DispatchMessage(&msg);
             }
         }

because otherwise you would not be able to zoom.
However it does not return on mouse input.
I don't know if it should do so?
