Yes - I should have explicitly stated that I think that's important. It is currently configurable, but the setting only controls the top end of the slider (or equivalent) in some (?) of the UIs. > To Michael's points, I agree that an overhaul of motion would make a lot of > this development easier, and enable much more flexibility in how the > motions are controlled.

I think that is totally reasonable, and is the approach I'd take, especially since I think your changes are orthogonal to the improvements Michael is talking about, and your changes will make that later project, if it happens, no harder (or easier). I will help you however I can, and still hope to see you in irc.
