My immediate reaction to this discussion is that the model
is getting too complicated.

I'd be inclined to implement this as a single integer value,
with a range running from -1 to 1000
     The description of the object would indicate the restriction
on acceptable values,   and any attempt to SET a non-multiple
of 5 would fail with a 'wrongValue' error

As for the special-case of the mute value - that's probably most
easily handled by providing a dedicated client application, which
recognises the special value 'mute' and turns this into -1 internally.

My fear is that you're trying to squeeze too much automatic
processing into what is fundamentally a general-purpose (and
fairly low-level) tool.
