I agree with Vincent and the docs - there's no ambiguity: valueChanged 
*is* emitted whenever new text is entered (so long as the changes result 
in a valid value). So the way to achieve what you want is to simply 
connect to that signal.

If that's not working for you, you will need to provide more details 
(i.e. some example code that demonstrates the problem).
