title: What is (s/g)etFreezesText in TextView?
body: <p>As of recently (probably as a new SDK feature), when I try to pull text from a <code>Textview</code>, I first get the method <code>getFreezesText()</code>, instead of <code>getText()</code>. </p>
  
  <p>I looked at the definition of this method and it says</p>
  
  <pre><code>**android:freezesText**
  
  If set, the text view will include its current complete text inside of its frozen icicle in addition to meta-data such as the current cursor position. By default this is disabled; it can be useful when the contents of a text view is not stored in a persistent place such as a content provider.
  Must be a boolean value, either "true" or "false".
  This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form "@[package:]type:name") or theme attribute (in the form "?[package:][type:]name") containing a value of this type.
  This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol freezesText.

  <p>This tells nothing to me. </p>
  
  <p>When we are supposed to use these methods (if ever at all)? Are they new or I've just noticed them?</p>
