Hi, I have noticed a serious usability flaw with the otherwise awesome
"range slider" control.
If you drag the left thumb all the way to the right, so you can filter
on just the last value, you CANNOT drag it back! You are stuck at the
maximum value.
If you drag the right thumb over-top the left thumb, to filter on the
minimum value, you CAN drag it back.
This is probably a CSS zindex issue with the left thumb under the
right thumb. Here is a solution for the team:
1) Add a click event to the slider track which brings the thumb back
to that point.
2) Add a click event to the min & max labels to jump the thumb back to
the min or max places.
Not sure if this is the place for a post about BUGs
Cheers James

Any NumberRangeFilter reproduces the bug. Just drag the low thumb to the max value of the range. Then it's stucked there forever.
Example on the playground:

Hello,
it seems that the option 1 is already implemented.
Clicking on the slider track the Thumb moves there.
Cheers
