DynamicCommand: combobox in the example never gets updated

[fmeyenhofer]

I just pulled the latest changes of this repository and tried to get DynamicCallbacks
running. Now the KindOfThing does not seem to trigger the update of the Thing. I put a breakpoint here and indeed the callback gets triggered.

The question being; am I doing something wrong, or does the MutableModuleItem need a nudge to update the content of its components?

@fmeyenhofer did you see the comment in the source code?

tutorials/maven-projects/dynamic-commands/src/main/java/DynamicCallbacks.java

Lines 29 to 31 in c787644

	* NB: As of this writing, this command WILL NOT WORK AS DESIRED in the ImageJ
	* Legacy or ImageJ Swing UIs, due to limitations in the scijava-ui-swing input
	* harvester implementation.

But I don't think any active issue existed so far to track this, so we can now link to this one here 🙂 (although it should likely be in https://github.com/scijava/scijava-ui-swing/issues).

yes, I read that a long time ago, but it was not present anymore when I wrote this issue. I found myself writing yet another Swing configuration dialog, because widgets cannot be dynamically updated, so I thought I see where this thing is at....
