Not urgent; in fact, I might just try to get this to work this weekend or so. So don't feel pressured to work on this.

Research direction

Locate the QSlider and QFloatSlider implementations and review the linked Qt slider example for possible anchor or tick-label behavior. Confirm how the existing range-slider instances are created, then verify that at least the range extrema are visibly labeled, with tick labels if supported, across the affected sliders.
