If #1 was decided on, it would be good to have clear documentation on
the how to initiate the submit from one of those components as well.
TrPage.getInstance().sendPartialFormPost may be enough, but maybe
additional "standard" form parameters could be supported in that
method call (like, (1) is supporting the ability to skip the update
phase a good idea?, (2) ability to only send the value from this
component -- JavaScript initiated partial decode like the subform
component does, etc.).

PS - Out of curiosity, why was it coded as
"TrPage.getInstance().sendPartialFormPost" instead of
"TrPage.sendPartialFormPost" (JavaScript singletons don't normally
need an instance)?
