Hi Pilou,

re:

It pops up when you click in a numeric entry field. If it were to show up some
long distance away from the field you just clicked on that would be much more
mouse travel than it is currently.

Also there's an overall focus in the UI design to not have too many things floating
over top of the viewport since that kind of "clutter" can get in the way of seeing
the actual objects.
