/**
 * Base class for validating line edits that performs validation in a virtual
 * validate() function to be implemented in derived classes.
 * When invalid, the text color will turn red and a tooltip will
 * contain the error message. This approach is less intrusive than a
 * QValidator which will prevent the user from entering certain characters.
 *
 * The widget has a concept of an "initialText" which can be something like
 * "<Enter name here>". This results in state 'DisplayingInitialText', which
 * is not valid, but is not marked red.
