TestTableViewAndTextField

This project demonstrates an issue that I ran into when using a UITextField in a UITableView. Specifically, if a prototype cell is created that contains a UITextField, I'm having problems accessing the value of the UITextField from the UIViewController. Essentially, what I want to do, is that at any point in the UITableView's life, I want to be able to access the UITextField's text property.

My first thought was to use cellForRowAtIndexPath to retrieve the cell via an NSIndexPath, and then access the cell's UITextField property is problematic. Doing this just results with the UITextField's text being returned as the initial value I defined in the storyboard. What gives?
