Input fields should have the ACTIONS feature enabled on them. The user can determine some settings like when to consider a POST to the DB. Fex:

Post field value to DB when:

- x amount of characters have been typed

- x amount of characters have been typed AND a pause of x seconds

- after loss of focus

- every x second

- on ENTER key press

- on binding to button x
