I think  it would be nice to have it as option.

If I remember correctly, it was introduced back then when brush presets in Krita were not available :) 
Maybe we have some bug report about it in bugs.kde.org. The workflow which this multiplier supported was:

"I work with small brushes so I need to precisely and quickly select brush size in interval 1 to 10 with tablet in my hand. 
Ok, let's open brush preset editor and change it from 5 px to 10 px".
If the slider is without multiplier areas,it is completely cumbersame to select desired brush size quickly with tablet pen, because 
you would jumped to huge offset easily (e.g. now I want brush with 10 pixels -- slider is like: nah, have a 54 pixels brush instead :) )


But many new features might make this obsolete workflow: features like shortcuts to change brush size, Shift-drag feature, presets.
I would like to hear opinion from Animtim or optinally Cyrille who implemented this multiplier workflow, if this workflow is really obsolete or somebody 
still uses it when preparing new bundle of presets.
