Feature Request scale for steps in slider, range slider

[SumNeuron]

It would be nice if the steps in range slide could be scaled (e.g. log)

From @MM-Lehmann in plotly/dash#1250:

It would be nice to have the dcc.Slider (and similar controls?) accept a log=int() attribute which would then convert all numbers/marks/tooltips of the control by calculating x**log. Of course, the default value would be log=1

x**log would be power scaling, not logarithmic - anyway there are various scaling functions which may be valuable.

Yeah, I've been a bit confusing in my wording. That's what i meant, anyway.
In my mind, it would be easy to just attach a scaler function, similar to a serialiser/deserialiser which converts set values in both directions. This way, you wouldn't have to change much in the backend. That said, the js slider supports a logarithmic scaling option, maybe that can be leveraged?
