Details:

In the new map editor (editor2) map creation and map resize windows, it is
impossible (or at least so difficult that I don't manage it) to select
certain numbers for the map width and height. In my case, I cannot select any
values that are multiples of 25 with the mouse. I can't either select some
other values such as 13, 38, 63, etc.

Since these dialogs use gui2 widgets, I suggest bringing back the old
widgets' slider's feature of being able to click on the slider's "movable
block" and then using the left (<-) and right (->) keys to select values that
are difficult/impossible to achieve with the mouse. This was probably
something that any user of any of the major modern GUI toolkits (GTK 1 or 2,
Qt 3 or 4, Windows UI) would expect to be able to do.

P.S. I didn't know whether to classify this report as a bug or feature
request, since it both involves a lack-of-feature and a important and
annoying limitation in the map editor usefulness, and also a regression from
the behavior of the old editor.
