Make an input parameter with a text typein.  You ignore its value, but
you can wire to it, since it is a passthru parameter value.  Then, 
instead of setting an output port, call cxInWdgt*Set to set the
typein.  The value gets propagated to the downstream widget, and you
get to watch its value.

Yes its a gross workaround.
Hopefully, this will be fixed in the next release.
