Sorry to be so long getting back to this topic.
I've made a couple of attempts at getting the digits to line up vertically, and there doesn't seem to be a clear-cut way to do it. Perhaps somebody else knows how and is willing to contribute that code.
Instead, I've added boxes above the sliders and adjusted the font in them so that they fit. On some platforms, this results in quite small type (e.g. on Linux, you get 5 point characters); still readable, but small. You can type the numbers in there directly and the slider will adjust, or you can move the slider until the number is right.
I'll put out a test version over the weekend.
