   **Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
   Range filters are fantastic, but there is no simple way to adjust the step size or the scale of the range. Scale is useful for large ranges, eg a log scale, so that you can easily select small and large values
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**
   I've already implemented this on my own fork. 
   
   - Step Size is just an additional Advanced Config dropdown box with several pre-populated choices, as well as a free form option. The tricky part was getting it to properly work in the Native Filter Config modal, since they're expecting all parameters to be checkboxes.
   - Scale is a little trickier, but it could possibly be set up as multiple options (eg log, power, etc). Currently I implemented a log scale option, which would make zeros hard. I'm currently ignoring that :)
   
   **Describe alternatives you've considered**
   
   - Simplest option for Scale would be to ditch antd ranges and use material-ui, as it appears to be built in https://material-ui.com/api/slider/
   - Another option would be to add text boxes to allow the user to manually enter values
   
   **Additional context**
   Here's what I have so far:

   Log Scale with 0.01 step size

   Linear Scale with 100k step size

   Config Screen Defaults

   I currently have a slight issue with displaying the correct step size in the dropdown box, especially when you have multiple range filters in the native filter set. But otherwise, this works both as a Native Filter and as an experimental Cross Filter
