**WARNING**

  This demo might not work as expected and some documented features might be
  missing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another demo showing how to use a TabularEditor to create a multi-select list
box. This demo creates a reusable StringListEditor class and uses that instead
of defining the editor as part of the demo class.

This approach greatly simplifies the actual demo class and shows how to
construct a reusable Traits UI-based editor that can be used in other
applications.
