How 'bout I add a boolean flag to the MythSpinBox class that controls
whether or not this behavior is enabled. Default would be the current
behavior, like so:
Default (flag false)
Left/Right = dec/inc by stepsize
Prior/Next = no-op
modified behavior (flag true):
Left/Right = dec/inc by 1
Prior/Next = dec/inc by stepsize
if no stepsize set, default to 10
What say ye?
