The current KOffice implementation is not really efficient in my opinion. It does 
not support mouse wheel, nor direct value input through keyboard, and the 
up/down arrow are too small to be useful.

About Till's current widget, I also find it disturbing not to see the 
boundaries, user has no idea whether the max value is 100 or 6000. Also, I 
prefer linear scale when dragging, but it's not really useful when you need to 
scroll from 0 to 6000 (yes, some effects have that value range) - you would 
need to drag 6 times your whole monitor width to go to the may value...

After thinking a bit about it, I posted a screenshot showing a possible widget 
that might come around the limitations noted above. You can see a mockup at:

However I have no idea how hard it would be to implement it, I only thought 
about the design for the moment.
