Description
Created a projection as follows:
backend.addProjection 'gameInfos', 'games',
id: true
testGame: true
host: true
classIds: true
createdAt: true
mode: true
'scenario.name': true
'scenario.labels.publish': true
'scenario.labels.unpublish': true
'scenario.scenarioName': true
'scenario.playedAt': true
'scenario.gameCategory': true
'scenario.gameType': true
'scenario.password': true
'scenario.roles': true
Subscribed to a regular query:
$games = @model.query 'gameInfos', someQuery
@model.subscribe $games, =>
@model.ref '_page.games', $games
@page.render ...
All first-level nested fields, e.g. mode, host are being reactively updated. But the specified nested fields, e.g. scenario.name are not.
It will work fine if I pass just scenario: true into addProjection, i.e. all nested fields under scenario object will be updated reactively, but what if I only want a subset of the nested fields.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the addProjection and model.subscribe example with dotted fields such as scenario.name and compare it with a projection using scenario: true. Trace how nested projection fields are handled during query subscription updates; done means the specified nested fields update reactively without subscribing to every field under scenario.
