/**
* A form button.
* <p>
* Within a form, you can nest Button components. Note that you don't have to do this to let the
* form work (a simple <input type="submit".. suffices), but if you want to have different kinds
* of submit behavior it might be a good idea to use Buttons.
* </p>
* <p>
* The model property is used to set the "value" attribute. It will thus be the label of
* the button that shows up for end users. If you want the attribute to keep it's markup attribute
* value, don't provide a model, or let it return an empty string.
* </p>
* <p>
* When you add a Wicket Button to a form, and that button is clicked, by default the button's
* onSubmit method is called first, and after that the form's onSubmit method is called. If you want
* to change this (e.g. you don't want to call the form's onSubmit method, or you want it called
* before the button's onSubmit method), you can override Form.delegateSubmit.
* </p>
* <p>
* One other option you should know of is the 'defaultFormProcessing' property of Button components.
* When you set this to false (default is true), all validation and formupdating is bypassed and the
* onSubmit method of that button is called directly, and the onSubmit method of the parent form is
* not called. A common use for this is to create a cancel button.
* </p>
