I think in that case Tim, you have to tell the TableViewer to refresh
since the property listeners may not get triggered.

Is there a way to observe and propagate changes at/in the objects due to the refresh as eclipse databinding offers? Perhaps its possible to couple eclipselink and eclipse databinding seamlessly?
