This is some really cool stuff, but one UI element doing everything, and
especially because the appearance is just a blue circle, really does not seem
intuitive. We would need a manual describing exactly how to use the control
(akin to the proposal attached earlier), or it would be just a single (albeit
powerful) UI element that nobody uses because they don't know what it is.
