/**
 * TextChangeEvent is broadcast in the APPLY_REQUEST_VALUES phase via the
 * SelectInputText's textChangeListener MethodBinding, containing the
 * SelectInputText's submittedValue as its new value.
 * 
 * It's purpose is to notify the application that the user has typed in a
 * text fragment into the SelectInputText's text input field, allowing for
 * the application to refine its selection list which will popup.
 * 
 * In the case of converted and validated values, which require a complete
 * input of text, like with a Date, the textChangeListener may call
 * FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().renderResponse() to forstall the
 * doomed validation.
