/**
 * This javax.swing.ComboBoxModel can be used to keep a ListDataListener
 * (e.g. a JComboBox) in synch with a ListValueModel (or a CollectionValueModel).
 * For combo boxes, the model object that holds the current selection is
 * typically a different model object than the one that holds the collection
 * of choices.
 * 
 * For example, a MWReference (the selectionOwner) has an attribute
 * "sourceTable" (the collectionOwner)
 * which holds on to a collection of MWDatabaseFields. When the selection
 * is changed this model will keep the listeners aware of the changes.
 * The inherited list model will keep its listeners aware of changes to the
 * collection model
 * 
 * In addition to the collection holder required by the superclass,
 * an instance of this ComboBoxModel must be supplied with a
 * selection holder, which is a PropertyValueModel that provides access
 * to the selection (typically a PropertyAspectAdapter).
