ITextLayoutMarshaller::RequiresLiveUpdate

Return true if the marshaller requires the text be updated "live" (eg, because it inserts formatting directly into the source text) Returning true will cause SetText to be called every time the source text is changed, which is costly, but required for things like syntax highlighting
