What Happened?
In the Markdown mirror, a text property that has "Multiple values" disabled is incorrectly exported using multi-value list syntax instead of a single-value property line.
For example, instead of:
myprop:: some value
It exports as:
myprop::
- some value
Reproduce the Bug
- Create a text property on a node and ensure "Multiple values" is disabled for it.
- Assign a single text value to this property (e.g.,
myprop:: some value). - Check the Markdown mirror view or exported Markdown file for that node.
Observed: The property is rendered as a multi-value list:
myprop::
- some value
Expected Behavior
Properties with "Multiple values" disabled should be exported in the Markdown mirror as a standard single-value property line (e.g., myprop:: some value), not as a bulleted list.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with a text property whose "Multiple values" setting is disabled, then inspect the Markdown mirror export path for property rendering. Compare the output with the expected single-value line myprop:: some value; done means single-value properties no longer use bulleted-list syntax while multi-value properties remain unaffected.
