How can I style DCC components directly in the app without using a Div?  
Is it possible to style it directly, something like this?

```auto
dcc.Slider(id='slider', min=0, max=50, step=2, value=10, style=dict(width='50%'))

```

I did try it and got:

```auto
TypeError: The `dash_core_components.Slider` component (version 1.10.2) with the ID "slider" received an unexpected keyword argument: `style`

```

It seems to me that the only way to style it directly is to wrap it in a div.  
Is there a way to avoid this extra code?
