Slider increment adjustment and other blocks/add ons

Some block ideas for future versions of scratch.
---Slider increment adjustment---
You want to make a game, say, with a slider. However, the game includes 1/2 increments on the slider. Scratch's sliders will only allow WHOLE increments... Unless, of course, you set the slider min to .9 instead one 1, and then you have all those annoying little .1 increments in between. I suggest that in the drop down menu for a slider variable, a "Change slider increment" option which allows you to set the increments from 1's to 2's, 1/2's of 1/10's. Much more convenient!
---Change costume by (X)---
Simply a matter of convenience. Easier then typing "Switch to costume (Costume+/- X)"
---Glide (X) seconds to to (Mouse pointer ▼)---
I tell you, it's so annoying when you have to make something glide to another sprite and you have to put "Glide (X) seconds to X sad X position of sprite 1) Y sad Y position of sprite 1)" Wouldn't it be nice if you could put "Glide 3 seconds to sprite 1?"

I like all three, but the first is the only one I consider necessary.

Yes, what sci said, and also, the 2nd one was there before, but it was removed.

If you're clever and willing to do work, you can do all three actually.
