In my opinion it would be a detriment request.
Nasser, you seem so certain that the slider operation should be the way
you want, but in my opinion it is correct now with three possible
increments. Think of it this way: the way it is now you can get what
you want, but if the change you want is made, it will be impossible to
have a smaller increment than the minor step. In other words, the
slider will have *less* functionality than it does now.
