That said, it _would_ be very helpful to have something else available
except the +/- 10 mils fixed step (not only for holes, also for track
widths etc). I would gladly sacrifice the +/- 10 options for a simple
dialog which asks for a new size. It doesn't make much sense to decrease
a 12 mil track by 10 mils anyway.

I'm not too experienced a programmer, but I'm willing to help out...
