   The only way to do this is to listen for SVG Zoom events and then apply
a compensating transform to the layers (groups) that you don't want to 
zoom.
The tricky bit is that if you want to do this to say 'symbols' like on a 
map
then you can't simply unscale the whole group because then your symbols 
wouldn't move to the right place, so you need to allow the layer to scale 
but
then change the scale of each of the symbol elements.  There are some 
tricks
using markers and the like that can make this a little easier, but it's 
pretty
tricky really.
