v3: slider does not handle out-of-bounds values well

The problem

With Web Interface v3, sliders can be long-pressed to edit their value in a text field. However, if the currently-set value is out of bounds for the slider (in my case, it's larger than the UI max), the slider malfunctions:

The text field shows the "UI max", not the actual value of the setting.
Pressing Enter to set the "UI max" value does nothing, presumably because it thinks the value hasn't changed. This is a premature optimisation -- if I don't want to set, I won't press Enter.

In my case I have this issue with the Climate/PID control.

Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?

The slider limits are configured in the Climate control's visual section, and thus are not hard limits to the allowed value. They are just meant as min/max for the slider interface. This makes me expect that I would be able to set any value in the numerical input. This isn't the case, though.

To give an example of how I'd expect it to work: Blender also has value sliders, with two bounds: a 'soft' bound for the slider, and a 'hard' bound for the values. This means that it's possible to make the slider work comfortably in the 5-20 °C range, while accepting any temperature when it's numerically entered. I think that's quite a nice UI, although I'm sure that implementing this is out of scope for this bug report ;-)

This bug report is really about this case:

Press the custom button to set the set-point to 40°C.
I want to lower the set-point to 20°C with the slider.
Long-press the slider, the displayed value is already set to 20.
Press Enter, expecting the set-point to go to 20°C, but it remains at 40°C.
Long-press the slider again, change the value to 19.
Long-press the slider again, change the value to 20.
Now it's set to 20°C.
