Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

I'm trying to use external blinds with zigbee2mqtt and TS130F motor controllers. They work fine, however I need to be able to control the tilt of the blinds. Since there is no separate tilt value (like in Homematic), I need to control this using the position of the blind.

Describe the solution you'd like

One percent steps are too big though. I can not achieve a 50% tilt, for example. Right now I'm moving the blinds say to the 1% position (going down), and then I'll set them to the 2% position, so the blinds tilt. 2% results in a tilt of about 30% though, and setting 3% is already like 70% tilt.

Or is there any existing way to achieve this?

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using position in 1% increments, but that does not achieve the desired tilt value.

Additional context

Trying to move from Homematic to Zigbee.

Edit: just found out that there actually are controllers that offer tilt, it's unfortunate that the information is pretty hard to find (and the controllers are quite expensive).
