[Cuis-dev] dependency mechanism for TextModelMorph

[Mark Volkmann]

As far as I can tell, TextModel morph does not send #changed: every time
its value changes, so that prevents me from listening for updates. I see
that the TextModel method actualContents: does send #changed:, but that is
not invoked on every change to a TextModelMorph even when it is configured
with acceptOnAny: true.
