This is indeed what I want to do, but to move the 3d cursor to the
center mass of an object, I have to first go into edit mode and then
select all vertices and then Cursor->Selection.

This indeed does the job, moving around the object equidistant, but I
was looking for a simpler solution;).

When I select something, whether in object or edit mode, I have a
center of interest; in 99.9% of the cases, when I move my view, I want
to tumble about this center of interest. So maybe something like hold
down a modifier key and then hold down a mouse button.

Thank you for your help so far;).
