Summary0004356: Master/slave links confusing
DescriptionI find the concept of master/slave links confusing. When I link two properties, I expect them to allways have the same value. Conceptually, they become the same thing.

With the current implementation, only changes to the master are propogated to the other object. The properties become out-of-sync as soon as the slave property is changed.

The situation would be far less confusing if a link meant the properties would always be the same. I can't think of a use case where you would want the property to be propagated only one way. If it is necessary to have these master/slave property connections, then there should be some sort of bi-directional toggle that is on by default.
