ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This behaviour can confuse new users as the caret is tiny (and it can be
covered by the slider fill if the number is large enough) so when they try to
left click the slider again it no longer moves (because they are in the input
field). This breaks what the user expects the slider to do [and has caught me
out a few times when I first started learning Krita].
So, should you even allow the user to use left click to change the caret
position while on the slider? We only use it for numbers, which don't really
require that level of editing and when it interferes with the action of the
sliders it should be considered for removal.
P.S. Just noticed the panel, toolbar and brush settings now have consistent
Right Click behaviours. Thanks for fixing that!
