Ok, that makes sense. Let's make the situation a bit more complicated
still:

1) as before, you have a slider that's defined by {0.0; 10.0; 2.5}
(min, max, value)
2) the slider domain is changed and the value is adjusted, so now we
have {10.0; 50.0; 10.0}
3) now the domain is shifted again, and this time it becomes {-20.0;
+20.0; ?}

should the value stick to 10.0 or revert to 2.5? 2.5 is the value you
last specified, so in my mind that means you 'prefer' that value to
10.0, which was merely a result of limits.
