I like the sliderbutton, but I think it'd be nicer and easier to read
with some kind of graphical representation of the value as well.

There's so much horizontal empty space there behind the text labels, why
not put a 'progress bar' in the background?  That would make it really
nice for pan widgets etc.

As for the fanslider, it's a really cool idea, but way, way too flickery
on my machine to consider using.
