Comment:

 Agreed that this is invalid. The update filter is specifically to filter
 the value that is returned by the widget's `update` callback. If a filter
 is desired for the value going ''into'' the `update` callback, then a new
 filter should be proposed. Also, we can't move the filter from where it
 exists right now without breaking existing plugins.
