What would happen if more than one component uses the same model? Would we
keep a list of components to notify? If that's the case why not just
implement listeners instead, so then any class could listen to model
changes. It's a nice idea except that IModel would have to be turned in to a
class instead of an interface and that seems more restrictive than not
having those methods being called :(.

I'm new to Wicket and never needed to use those methods but I guess that
making IModel a class and increasing the coupling between model and
component is a price too high to pay for it.
