--- Comment #7 from Jakob Petsovits <jpe...@petsovits.com> ---
I'll note that the "fix" referenced above looks a little different than the
suggestion for expected behavior in comment #0.

I wanted to do this initially, but Qt Quick makes this sort of hard. The
SpinBox component has a single field called "stepSize", it affects the value
for both going up and going down. Now if I'm at 1 minute, what I would like is
to go down by 1 second but up by 1 minute. This can't be done without terrible
(and possibly buggy) hacks at the moment, as far as I'm aware.

So in the new UI, you get drop-downs with a few preset values instead, and if
those preset values aren't what you're looking for, you can configure a custom
value with the "Custom..." option. The dialog that presents the custom duration
prompt will provide a SpinBox input field like before, but instead of combining
value and time unit in the same field, it lets you choose between seconds and
minutes through a pair of radio buttons to the right of the input field. This
also solves the mentioned issue, though perhaps not in the way that you
originally had in mind.
