Suggestion: invisible hitbox for mobile.

[TMeerhof]

On mobile devices moving the sliders is difficult. An improvement would be to have an invisible ‘hitbox’ around the handles to improve the mobile user experience.

Have you tried using invisible borders? That's how I usually increase the 'hitbox' of an element...

/* you can't just copy and paste this, its just an example */
.handle {
    border: 10px solid transparent;
}

Normally you'd need to fiddle with the markup a bit so it might not be possible with the default rangeslider template
