| SetParentFeatureInternal | Set the parent features which would be internal or slaves to the feature being created or commited |
| ShowInternalParentFeatureForEdit | Unsuppress an internal parent feature (a slave feature) so it can be edited. |
| ShowResults | Updates the model to reflect the result of an edit to the model for all builders that support showing results. |
| UnsetParentFeatureInternal | Set the internal parent feature of the feature being edited to external |
| Validate | Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called. |
