Sitefinity - AutoGenerated Fields - Not persisting values

Question

I'm exploring the use of the autogenerated fields in SiteFinity widget designers.

The fields are generated as expected. However, the selected values aer not persisted to the model. I.e. the FAQs property remains null after selecting in the widget designer.

What steps have I missed? Do I need to implement my own angularJS controller?

Here's my model:

    public class CustomWidgetModel: CustomDynamicContentModelBase, IDynamicContentBase
    {
        [Content(Type = "Telerik.Sitefinity.DynamicTypes.Model.FAQs.Faq", AllowMultipleItemsSelection =true)]
        public MixedContentContext FAQs { get; set; }

        [DefaultValue(WidgetDisplay.AllPublished)]
        public WidgetDisplay WidgetDisplay { get; set; }

        [Browsable(false)]
        public override string ContentTypeFullName => "Telerik.Sitefinity.DynamicTypes.Model.FAQs.Faq";

}

It's a known bug, the property needs to be on the controller itself.
