The problem with passing the checked items to your bugtraq provider is
that after your provider returns, the user can easily change the checked
items without your provider noticing it.
That's why you only get the checked items in the CheckCommit() method,
which is called when the user clicks the OK button and can't change
those checked items anymore.
