+/**
+ * @fileoverview
+ * SliderHostBehavior handles data binding for paper-sliders that need to map
+ * the slider's values from a linear UI range to a range of real values. When
+ * the real value does not map exactly to a tick mark, it interpolates to the
+ * nearest tick.
+ *
+ * Sliders should be data bound as follows:
+ *
+ *     <paper-slider
+ *         value="[[getSliderIndexFromValue(
+ *             path.to.property.value, listOfValidValues)]]"
+ *         on-change="onSliderChange" on-value-change="onSliderValueChange"
+ *         data-value-path="path.to.property.value"
+ *         slider-tick-values="[[listOfValidValues]]">
+ *     </paper-slider>
+ *
+ * In addition to the computed value binding and two events, this includes two
+ * new attributes:
+ *     data-value-path: the path to the number value the slider should control
+ *     slider-tick-values: an {!Array<number>} of the values the ticks represent
+ */
