// Investigate if you can get into a loop with a Swing-based MVC app;
// in particular, if you do setSelectedIndex on a choice, does it
// generate a secondary event? Push the button and see!
// If it does, you must be careful to avoid event propagation loops.
// This example doesn't show it, but you can loop with other implementations.
// For example, if a changed() method updates the model's data.
