/** \class QgsFilterLineEdit
 * \ingroup gui
 * QLineEdit subclass with built in support for clearing the widget's value and
 * handling custom null value representations.
 *
 * When using QgsFilterLineEdit the value(), setValue() and clearValue() methods should be used
 * instead of QLineEdit's text(), setText() and clear() methods, and the valueChanged()
 * signal should be used instead of textChanged().
