Recenter with minChars different from 2

[Vito Meuli]

I'd like to set different minimum numbers of chars to trigger different
instances of the Recenter widget: sometimes I need only 1,  often 2 (default),
sometimes more then 2.
Is there a way of configuring it other then changing the code in DataField.js?
I'd like not to leave the trunk code.

Cheers,
Vito Meuli

Hi. There's currently no way to configure that, which sucks :-) A
patch introducing a minChars property or a comboOptions property or
both in the DataField class would be welcome.

Thanks,

This works fine for me.
I send you the patch and the whole new file.
It's my first patch, so please doble check it :-)

PS: I just downloaded the SVN trunk.

Cheers,
Vito

I added a test, and committed the patch to the trunk.
