SUMMARY

The behaviour of the pointer speed text input in the Mouse System Settings is weird and erratic:

1. Given the input `-0.65`, I'd like to change the 6 for a 7

When hitting backspace on the 6 the input becomes `-0.50` and the cursor moves all the way to the right. I would expect the input to be `-0.5` then and the cursor being between the dot and the 5

2. Given the input `-0.65`. If one removes the dot, the value becomes `-1.00`. I would expect that the text field allows temporarily values outside of the scope to help users type in values.

3. Starting from an empty text field, I would like to input the value `-0.65`. After typing `-0.6` the text field immediately completes to `-0.60`, even though I'm still typing. This results in the text value `-0.605` instead of `-0.65`.
