I initially reviewed this as functional and accurate, but upon further consideration, I believe it requires additional refinement.
Imagine you're conducting an auction with a substantial $500 increment and a reserve price of $10,000. While the reserve hasn't been met, the bid increment works well. However, once the bidding reaches the auction reserve, it can become somewhat unfair on bidders .. forcing them to pay $500 everytime

->the question: bug report or feature request?
"once the bidding reaches the auction reserve, it can become somewhat unfair on bidders."
As I myself best recall the intent of Bid Step is to offer the next user what the Owner would want to Bid Step to be, not to force the end User to just defacto User the next step. If they are not an Autobid at all, they just want to manually add 1 penny more.. that is The Spirit of Auctioning.
thoughts?

Closing.
'#min' => ($minPrice + .01), + '#min' => ($minPrice + (float)$item->getBidStep()),
indeed true. bid step is not designed to be inforced. just the next suggested 'click' if a user just quickly doesn't just want to only add 1cent more! lol.
-> a user should always be able to choose how much they want to bid as long as it's more than the last recorded big.
works as designed.
