In javascript how can you watch changes to a nested property or computed property on an observable object?

http://docs.kendoui.com/api/framework/observableobject#methods has observable.bind("change", function(e) { }); but this does not seem to update for nested properties/computed properties.

Hello Jonathan,

 The change event should be raised for nested properties. Here is a live demo showing this in action: http://jsbin.com/iqukaz/1/edit

Thank you. I did not realize that it would work for nested properties. How do you suggest watching computed properties

Since I can watch nested properties, updating computed properties is not a large issue.

Although I have noticed an issue when trying to bind to nested arrays. Is there any guidance on a situation such as http://jsbin.com/abigum/2/edit?

I must have been very tired when I posted those two questions. Kendo MVVM is working well!!

I have had issues with binding to the mobile checklist form with nested properties, but it is likely something I am doing wrong. Instead of binding, I am manually observing changes and it works well.'

Thanks for your patience.
