/** a value binding to be connected to a form control

    This binding synchronizes the text contained in a table cell (which you must
    pass upon construction) to the text in an XBindableValue.

    Well, in real it does not synchronize both directions. The ValueBinding
    service has not much room for own activity: It allows notification of changes
    in the own value, and it allows external instances to set the current value.

    Note that we implement this binding as a separate thread, which is (more or
    less permanently) polling for a new text at the cell. This is unfortunate, but
    sadly the Writer table cells do not support actively notifying changes in their
    content to other interested parties.
