Defect 63867: 
bugzilla_63867 -- Datapool Editor: Value
class values are not being updated correctly.

Rationale:

In this release, we are adding support for Display Value Classes which
allows consumers to customize the Datapool Editor to handle different editors
(for example, a color chooser).  A bug was found by a consumer of
the component noting that the values were not being updated correctly.
 This was due to a missing call to the Display Value Class API.  This
was not an issue for base Hyades because all values are stored as strings
and the default string editor always returned the updated value.  The
fix involves adding a call to the update method of the display value class
and using the updated value.  The fix is currently being tested by
the consumer who found the bug (it is not yet checked into CVS).  Without
this fix, the feature is basically useless for complex editors whose getValue()
does not return the actual value (for example a combo box).

Risk Assessment:

No API change. Does not impact consumers except that value objects get
updated properly. 
Low to Medium risk change.
