       | This is one of the things I've been having problems with. Because
       | the way many frontend developers have been trained by react and
       | other component-based libraries is that a custom checkbox should
       | absolutely be its own component that encapsulates the styles and
       | behaviors that are specific to it. It's painful if this now goes
       | against the grain of the web platform.
