Background on this feature: initially onChange was meant for
flexforms only because requestUpdate is not available there at all.

I do not think we should have onChange in regular TCEforms. There
should be only one way of doing things and this way already exists:
'requestUpdate'.

As to IRRE, it is better if Olly comments. I guess requestUpdate
should work there as well.
