I don't see why we would want 2 sets of bounds. If there is no useful
"real" bound, then just use the existing bound. If there is a "real"
bound, then the GUI should be using it. However, I do think that a
default is a good idea. The alternatives (use lower, upper or middle
or range, or random value) are all poor.
