This issue is not trivial. We use function to format the text in the model browser. It updates the text when the element changes, but it doesn't know which related objects (like property type in this case) should also trigger an update of the text.

@amolenaar Sorry, I got stuck in another work. For now, I will unassign myself from this issue.
