I have a form on my page, and I would like to display a usage hint to the
user when they enter the field, and remove it when they exit the field.

This isn't validating behavior, just some rich interaction.  As best I can
tell, the correct thing to do would be:
  i) Create two AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior, one bound to "onfocus"
and one to "onblur".
  ii) Override the onUpdate() of the behaviors.
  iii) Add the behaviors to my form element.

My questions are: 
1) Is this the easiest/correct method for this?  

2) If I have multiple form elements I want to behave like this, can I
somehow determine which form control fired the onUpdate(), and switch based
on that, or do I have to create a pair of
AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior's for each control I am interested in? 
(This seems way too verbose!)

3) All the examples I see seem to only add components to the target.  Is it
not possible to remove the components during the onblur?  Do I just re-add
the component, but add a hidden style to it?  

Thanks for any insight.
