In my experience, I was never really using the +/-, because the +-5%
step always made me clicking like mad to achieve what I needed, and in
most cases I just fell back to using the slider directly (dragging the
indicator); so I believe increasing the step for the +/- is the right
thing to do here too - but maybe it is just me :-)
