Summary: Sample population editor has multiple issues

Initial Comment:
Issues include:
* File cannot be re-opened after entering sample data,
* Multiple (re-)display issues - items not displaying 
in correct locations or at all,
* Keyboard navigation is basically impossible, must 
use mouse - should be able to type, hit <enter>, type 
more, etc...
* Initial value consists of a single space, which 
sometimes remains in the value and sometimes not, 
depending on usage (initial space shouldn't exist and 
spaces should be trimmed)
* Population validation errors indicate, for example, 
that "Instance '6' does not participate in required 
fact type", but doesn't identify which entity type 
instance 6 relates to,
* Validation isn't reliably performed when switching 
windows, or produces errors not mirrored in the other 
windows (error list, verbalization browser, sample 
population editor),
* Sample populations need to be able to be imported 
via CSV files, etc
* Need to be able to sort data by column headings
* When entering data on an relationship to an entity 
having a RefMode of ID, the selection drop-down 
should if possible display values from another 
already-populated candidate key.

I'm entering sample data into the attached model 
using some of the info from the Tue and Wed series at 
<http://street.orienteering.com.au>, if you want to 
attempt the same thing to see the problems.

The attached ORM file won't re-open any more, I get 
an "argument out of range" exception.
