    If your component does not synchronize values automatically, i.e.
    synchronizesVariablesWithBindings() returns false, then you can use
    setValueForBinding(). You can call it from the action that gets
    called when you submit the form.

    To call the action bound to your component's action binding I would
    use valueForBinding("action").
