  My preference is to only use a spinbox for entries with less than 100 
possible values.  I believe that the up/down arrows give the impression that 
clicking on them is the "proper" method of selecting a value and while some 
people know that you can type in a value into a spinbox, I believe that there 
are others who do not and I really don't want users to be metaphorically 
cursing my name when they are trying to click their way up to a port number of 
say, 23517. Also, using a simple LineEdit with color coding for indicating an 
unacceptable input is consistent with the rest of the interface.
