This should probably be SetModel to be consistent with all the other 
setters in wx.  I assume there will be a GetModel too.

Why not just create a default ModelAdapter when things are first 
created, and then allow the user to call a SetModelAdapter method with 
an instance of a custom adapter class if they want to change it.  Or 
maybe it could be an optional parameter of the SetModel method.
