In the first implementation of the new robustness metric, I would
define the range as simply plus/minus 10% of the parameter value. So,
for a parameter set {10, 100}, the "neighbors" would be in {9..11,
90..110}. I agree with you that this may be too primitive, but we can
improve it later.

This should not be very difficult. I'll take a look at that.

I agree.
