/**
 * Adds bound properties for the frequently used JComponent state
 * <em>enabled</em>,<em>visible</em> and JTextComponent state <em>editable</em>
 * to the ValueModel interface.
 * ComponentValueModels can be used to set these properties at the
 * presentation model layer; any ComponentValueModel property change
 * will be reflected by components bound to that ComponentValueModel.<p>
 *
 * The ComponentValueModel is similar to the Swing Action class.
 * If you disable an Action, all buttons and menu items bound to that Action
 * will be disabled. If you disable a ComponentValueModel, all components
 * bound to that ComponentValueModel will be disabled. If you set the
 * ComponentValueModel to invisible, the component bound to it will become
 * invisible. If you set a ComponentValueModel to non-editable,
 * the JTextComponents bound to it will become non-editable.<p>
 *
 * Since version 1.1, PresentationModels can vend ComponentValueModels
 * using {@code #getComponentModel(String)} and
 * {@code #getBufferedComponentModel(String)}. Multiple calls
 * to these factory methods return the same ComponentValueModel.<p>
 *
 * The BasicComponentFactory and the Bindings class check if the ValueModel
 * provided to create/bind a Swing component is a ComponentValueModel.
 * If so, the ComponentValueModel properties will be synchronized
 * with the associated Swing component properties.<p>
 *
 * It is recommended to use ComponentValueModels only for those models
 * that are bound to view components that require GUI state changes.<p>
 *
 * <strong>Example Code:</strong><pre>
 * final class AlbumView {
 *
 *  ...
 *
 *     private void initComponents() {
 *         // No state modifications required for the name field.
 *         nameField = BasicComponentFactory.createTextField(
 *             presentationModel.getModel(Album.PROPERTYNAME_NAME));
 *         ...
 *         // Enablement shall change for the composer field
 *         composerField = BasicComponentFactory.createTextField(
 *             presentationModel.getComponentModel(Album.PROPERTYNAME_COMPOSER));
 *         ...
 *     }
 *
 *  ...
 *
 * }
 *
 *
 * public final class AlbumPresentationModel extends PresentationModel {
 *
 *  ...
 *
 *     private void updateComposerEnablement(boolean enabled) {
 *         getComponentModel(Album.PROPERTYNAME_COMPOSER).setEnabled(enabled);
 *     }
 *
 *  ...
 *
 * }
 * </pre><p>
 *
 * As of the Binding version 2.0 the ComponentValueModel feature
 * is implemented for text components, radio buttons, check boxes,
 * combo boxes, and lists. JColorChoosers bound using the
 * Bindings class will ignore ComponentValueModel state.
