Multiple objects and custom data factory / propertyaccessors

We're using a custom data factory (derived from DataFactory) and some custom PropertyAccessor classes (derived from CachedPropertyDataAccessorBase) to populate our property grid. Our PropertyAccessor classes return custom name templates and this works just fine when a single object is selected. However, when multiple objects are selected the fallback plain name template is used. Other than that the property merging works fine.

Is there something special we need to do in our datafactory or propertyaccessors to have the custom name template used when multiple objects are selected?

There is an issue with the MergedPropertyDataAccessor, with respect to the name template. The MergedPropertyDataAccessor is an accessor that merges 1 or more properties. Certain properties are aggregated (e.g. IsModified, Value), others are simply taken from the first property in the list (e.g. ValueTemplate). This accessor is not passing the NameTemplate/NameTemplateKey/NameTemplateSelector of the first property, as is the case with the value template properties.

I have corrected this for the upcoming maintenance release. If you need a more immediate fix, let us know.
