 * <li>
 * When a non-bound property stored in the slider changes, the slider fires
 * a {@link ChangeEvent} to its change listeners.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * When a bound property stored in the slider changes, the slider fires a
 * {@link PropertyChangeEvent} to its property change listeners.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * If any of the model's properties change, it fires a {@link ChangeEvent} to
 * its listeners, which include the slider.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * If the slider receives a {@link ChangeEvent} from its model, it will
 * propagate the event to its own change listeners, with the event's "source"
 * property set to refer to the slider, rather than the model.
