But the Live Filters in particular are difficult to "perform art" within.
Perhaps take advantage of the Context menu a little better (it has a lot of irrelevant commands as it is, not exactly a "{context" menu) to provide range, amount, and other stuff you need to do in proxy boxes by dragging sliders. Put it in the workspace, don't stop a creative process because the UI isn't designed to accommodate artists, who, back in the analog days, just reached for a kneaded eraser or a photo blue pencil, done deal.
