You should dispatch the appropriate collectoinChange event on top-level objects in the dataprovider.

Therefore I've written a labelFunction as mentioned in [1] which displays the value of such nested objects. However, for obvious reasons the DataGrid doesn't notice changes to "innerField". I've created a small example [2] which demonstrates the problem. When you change "manufacturer" in the TextInput you see the changes immediately in the DataGrid, but when you change the "driver's name" the DataGrid doesn't refresh. You can use "View source" if you want. The example is quite simple. Do you know a way to automatically update the DataGrid whenever the bound column (eg. "field.innerField") changes? Is it possible to dispatch an event when innerField changes so that the DataGrid knows which cell it should refresh?
