I've done some more experimentation on this. I was able to go further on the
idea of using a FocusListener because Kleopatra pointed out to me the new
"setSurrendersFocusOnKeystroke()" method on "JTable". Using this, I could
ensure that the spinner actually gets focus and later loses it (actually, it's
the internal text field, not the spinner). Unfortunately, what I found was
that just before the FocusListener is processed, the field has already been
reverted to its old value.
So, I found that the only practical solution is to set the internal text field
to uneditable. In other words, to not allow manual editing of the text field.
I found that JSpinners outside of JTables don't have this problem, although I'm
not certain of the exact circumstances that makes this work and the other
scenario not work.
