Re: addEventListener to radio button

I think the problem is that "onclick" gets fired _before_ the 
component's built-in on-click functionality... meaning in this case that 
when the user clicks the radio button the following happens:

    1. Radio button is disabled
    2. Form action is changed
    3. Form is submitted
    4. Radio button value is updated (built-in)

However, #4 never happens because the form is already submitted. Maybe 
what needs to happen is that somewhere between #1 and #3 the radio 
button's value needs to be manually set by the onclick handler?

Just some thoughts.
