Sounds simple to me if I am understanding what you want to do correctly.
Every so often do an A/D conversion for the pot.  Compare the value you get
to the last value which is stored in a buffer and jump to whatever you want
to do depending on weather the vales are equal(slider has not moved) or not.
I did something like this before with a joystick pot and didn't want to send
updates for small joystick changes so I had to subtract the current value
from the last value and see if te result was more than the hysterisis vale I
determined.
