I don't feel a big need for the main VFO dial to zero out the insignificant
digits, but I would like the first step of the RIT knob, when being used as
a fast tuner, to go to the next rounded frequency step above or below.

I have noticed that a lot of SSB stations seem to be on exact multiples of
1KHz and this would avoid some need to use the main VFO knob when quickly
tuining around. I don't think it's creeping channelization, I think it is
just a natural tendency when you have a digital readout and are searching
for a frequency to call CQ that you pick a "round" number to call on.
