that the Classic MVC example is broken:

I wanted to show a working jsfiddle with these changes applied, but I couldn't figure out how to get a POST request working. I do, however, have a jsbin that is working, although there are significant changes in the code to allow for GET and POST.

A redraw is called for every character entered in the jsbin but AFAICT, not in this PR. I don't know why. It's as though `oninput` is really `onchange`. It's possible to limit the redraw to once when the "save" button is clicked, but this requires a change in logic:
var ContactForm = {
controller: function(args) {
this.contact = m.prop(new Contact())
this.save = function(contact) {
Observable.trigger("saveContact", {contact: contact})
}
},
view: function(ctrl, args) {
var contact = ctrl.contact()
return m("form", [
m("label", "Name"),
m("input[name=name]"),
m("label", "Email"),
m("input[name=email]"),
m("button[type=button]", {onclick: function(){
contact = {
name: m.prop(this.parentNode.elements.name.value),
email: m.prop(this.parentNode.elements.email.value)
}
ctrl.save(contact)
}}, "Save")
])
}
}
