Don't know what Nate and Bruno might think, but adding an argument to
set the speed bump up would be trivial to code. If there is consensus
that this is a good idea, it becomes a question of how to design the
user interface. Absolute steps of percent of range come to mind.

I don't think anyone wants to slow down faster than on step at a time.
