     * Creates, binds and configures the UI components. 
     * Changes are committed to the value models on focus lost.<p> 
     * 
     * The coding style used here is based on standard Swing components.
     * Therefore we can create and bind the components in one step.
     * And that's the purpose of the BasicComponentFactory class.<p>
     * 
     * If you need to bind custom components, for example MyTextField, 
     * MyCheckBox, MyComboBox, you can use the more basic Bindings class.
     * The code would then read:<pre>
     * titleField = new MyTextField();
     * Bindings.bind(titleField, 
     *               presentationModel.getModel(Album.PROPERTYNAME_TITLE));
     * </pre><p>
     * 
     * I strongly recommend to use a custom ComponentFactory, 
     * the BasicComponentFactory or the Bindings class. These classes 
     * hide details of the binding. 
     * So you better <em>not</em> write the following code:<pre>
     * titleField = new JTextField();
     * titleField.setDocument(new DocumentAdapter(
     *     presentationModel.getModel(Album.PROPERTYNAME_TITLE)));
