Just a thought: Instead of a hard-coded number, perhaps making it so that it would always zoom out until the entire print area or object fits in the window - which ever is greater.
I know, its harder to do...

Yep. You're completely right. But UM doesn't have a bigger printer, so this isn't an issue for us. It's up to you guys to fix this. I don't think it's hard to get right.
I made a PR for the simple version (just extending the zoom range):
https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/pull/1816
The more comprehensive approach that automatically adapts the zoomrange to the build volume remains as future work.

> How hard would it be to allow cura to zoom out further?
For a developer it would be very easy; as easy as changing a number. For an enduser unfortunately it is a bit harder, because the zoom limit gets set in a place that gets "compiled", as opposed to a place in the code that remains editable.
I'll see if I can do something about this for Cura 2.6
