/**
 * Utility class for testing whether a candidate value matches a {@link BindStatus#getValue data bound value}.
 * Eagerly attempts to prove a comparison through a number of avenues to deal with issues such as instance
 * inequality, logical (String-representation-based) equality and {@link PropertyEditor}-based comparison.
 *
 * <p>Full support is provided for comparing arrays, {@link Collection Collections} and {@link Map Maps}.
 * 
 * <p><h1><a name="equality-contract">Equality Contract</a></h1>
 * For single-valued objects equality is first tested using standard {@link Object#equals Java equality}. As
 * such, user code should endeavour to implement {@link Object#equals} to speed up the comparison process. If
 * {@link Object#equals} returns <code>false</code> then an attempt is made at an
 * {@link #exhaustiveCompare exhaustive comparison} with the aim being to <strong>prove</strong> equality rather
 * than disprove it.
 * 
 * <p>Special support is given for instances of {@link LabeledEnum} with a <code>String</code>-based
 * comparison of the candidate value against the code of the {@link LabeledEnum}. This can be useful when a
 * {@link LabeledEnum} is used to define a list of '<code>&lt;option&gt;</code>' elements in HTML.
 *
 * <p>Next, an attempt is made to compare the <code>String</code> representations of both the candidate and bound
 * values. This may result in <code>true</code> in a number of cases due to the fact both values will be represented
 * as <code>Strings</code> when shown to the user.
 * 
 * <p>Next, if the candidate value is a <code>String</code>, an attempt is made to compare the bound value to
 * result of applying the corresponding {@link PropertyEditor} to the candidate. This comparison may be
 * executed twice, once against the direct <code>String</code> instances, and then against the <code>String</code>
 * representations if the first comparison results in <code>false</code>.
