 Sometimes the slider used in the simplify tool dialog is unpractical for
 use (range too wide).
 For this purpose, another way to specify the tolerance value would be
 useful.
 Also, the other widget would show the value selected by the slider so the
 user can see what
 tolerance is being applied. A spin box was suggested [1] and I think it's
 a good choice.

 Incidentally, might also be worth to have a way to avoid the 'simplify-on-
 value-change'
 (aka 'preview'?) to reduce cost of moving the slider :)
