An easy one for once :-)

The "Tied zoom" button works, but it does not seem to be a toggle button like the others (it does not remain depressed visually once it looses focus) whereas I think it should.

  Not so easy...  We would have to constantly rerun the voting procedure each 
time a tie box is toggled and artificially change the button.  We use a 
"voting" mechanism as opposed to an "on/off" state.

The current behavior is intentional:  The tied-zoom boxes on each plot indicate if the plot is tied or not.  Individual tie boxes can be toggled by clicking them.  Clicking the tied zoom box changes all plots to the currently least-used state (ie, of most are tied, it changes all to un tied).  So it is not a toggle box.

We could consider a better icon for the tie boxes however.
