/**
 * There are some UIComponent properties which we want to set based on
 *  both user interactions and from changing ValueBinding values. If
 *  we follow the typical pattern for regular component properties,
 *  then the local field value takes precedence over the ValueBinding,
 *  so once a user interaction has occured, then the ValueBinding won't
 *  work. What we'd instead prefer, it to follow the UIInput value
 *  property pattern, where newly set values are pushed into the
 *  ValueBinding, so that both means of changing the value work.
 * 
 * Most of the methods here are loose adaptations of UIInput's equivalents.
