/**
 * A {@link Field} whose UI content can be constructed by the user, enabling the
 * creation of e.g. form fields by composing Vaadin components. Customization of
 * both the visual presentation and the logic of the field is possible.
 *
 * Subclasses must implement {@link #getType()} and {@link #initContent()}.
 *
 * Most custom fields can simply compose a user interface that calls the methods
 * {@link #setInternalValue(Object)} and {@link #getInternalValue()} when
 * necessary.
 *
 * It is also possible to override {@link #validate()},
 * {@link #setInternalValue(Object)}, {@link #commit()},
 * {@link #setPropertyDataSource(Property)}, {@link #isEmpty()} and other logic
 * of the field. Methods overriding {@link #setInternalValue(Object)} should
 * also call the corresponding superclass method.
