/**
 * A BufferedPropertyValueModel is used to hold a temporary copy of the value
 * in another property value model (the "wrapped" value holder). The application
 * can modify this temporary copy, ad nauseam; but the temporary copy is only
 * passed through to the "wrapped" value holder when the trigger "accepts" the
 * buffered value. Alternatively, the application can "reset" the buffered value
 * to the original, "wrapped" value.
 * 
 * The trigger is another value model that holds a Boolean and the application
 * changes the trigger's value to true on "accept", false on "reset". Typically,
 * in a dialog:
 * 	- pressing the OK button will trigger an "accept" and close the dialog
 * 	- pressing the Cancel button will simply close the dialog,
 * 		dropping the "buffered" values into the bit bucket
 * 	- pressing the Apply button will trigger an "accept" and leave the dialog open
 * 	- pressing the Restore button will trigger a "reset" and leave the dialog open
 * 
 * A number of buffered property value models can wrap another set of
 * property aspect adapters that adapt the various aspects of a single
 * domain model. All the bufferd property value models can be hooked to the
 * same trigger, and that trigger is controlled by the application, typically
 * via the OK button in a dialog.
 *
