Are you sure your property editor is getting called correctly? If so,
then you might try debugging it to see if you can recognize the
problem in your code.

Further to this (still can't save drop down list changes :-( ),  I have
an example where an object x contains an object y that can be selected
using a drop down list, but y is currently null as I haven't added it to
x yet (would be done using the drop down list).
Is the trick here to create y in the formBackingObject and set the id to
-1?  Currently I get a null pointer in the property editor, presumably
as its trying to compare the id or name of a null object.
