Converters can sometimes mutate values in such a way that the on-screen representation needs to be refreshed.  For example, a converter might uppercase all letters.  Or an intelligent converter/validator pair for dates might allow partial date entry and fill in the rest automatically based on rules derived from the current locale.

When this happens, the value in the target object currently gets out of sync with the model.

The solution appears to be to refresh the value in the target from the model after copying to the model and applying converters.

But you don't always want to do this.  For example, when binding inside the model tier, this is unnecessary and may even cause breakage depending on what the target is bound to.

So this will have to be a setting, probably in the IBindSpec, that triggers this behavior.
