+ be interested in:
+ <ul>
+ <li>The pure validity flag: Whatever the user enters in the component, this is
+ either valid (relative to the active validator), or invalid.</li>
+ <li>The current value: Even if the validity flag does not change with the user
+ input (e.g. because the user replaces one invalid value with another invalid
+ value), observers might be interested in the current value, for example to
+ include it in a feedback message to the user.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </p>
+
+ <p>An XValidatableFormComponent allows to easily access both of these aspects.</p>
+
+ <p>Note that all of the information provided at this interface can also obtained by other means,
+ but much more inconveniently.</p>

+ calling this method is equivalent to retrieving the
