You need to force the cell editing to stop.  You can get the cell
editor from the JTable and (if it is not null) call its
stopCellEditing() method.

I have dealt with this by modifying all of the cell editors to stop
editing when they lose focus.  But this is tricky, since a JTable can
also use a cell editor by redirecting events to the editor.  This is
not a simple problem to solve in general.

Probably the easiest way to deal with it is to force the cell editing
to stop when the user "leaves that screen".
