i don't see why there should be a getInputAsArray. it seems to me there should
be an 'Object getInput()', which will usually return
getRequest().getParameter(getInputName()), but for some components, that for
some reason require multiple inputs, it will return
getRequest().getParameters(getInputName())
then, if there needs to be a conversion from that object to a String (which i
don't see why), then the converter needs to take care of it.

rawinput should also be a string[] but the problem is if we change that
then getValue()/getRawInput() and maybe als getModelValue all should
also change and that will affect a lot...

i was just looking at that. i think we messed up a little bit there.
now that getinputasarray() is public i made getinput() go through
that instead of request parameters directly.

i noticed that there is an inconsistency (in my view) in how
input is handled:
there's Component.getInput()
then FormComponent.inputAsStringArray ()
which is used to set
convertedInput - by convert()
and
rawInput - by inputChanged()
which are used all over the place. for example, getValue returns
the rawInput if it was set and getModelValue otherwise (which,
btw, uses the converter directly, rather than calling
convert()). this may cause surprises.
for convertedInput, i think it should be considered a caching
value. the method getConvertedInput() should check it, if it is
null, it does the conversion and sets it. it then returns it.
calling 'convert' explicitely from other places is not needed.
whoever needs a converted input should call getConvertedInput.
i don't know about rawInput, and why it is used, so i can't
comment much, but i also think it should be used as cached
value. it seems odd though, that getInput is not 'raw' enough.
of course inputChanged should just invalidate the caches.
