Creating a multi-select list box
How to use a TabularEditor to create a multi-select list box.
This demo uses two TabularEditors, side-by-side. Selections from the left table
are shown in the right table. Each table has only one column.

# FIXME (TraitsUI defect #15): In Windows wx, when show_titles is False,
# left table does not draw until selection passes through all rows.
# (Workaround here: set show_titles True and make column titles empty.)
