I have an element which renders a array of objects using dom-repeat. There is also a feature to modify a particular object. However, after updating the object, even if the array is updated, the dom does not reflect the change (render is called as well). I am using Polymer provided mutation function (this.slice, have a look in the _commitChange function below). Can someone point out what is wrong here? One thing to note is that individual items in the array are objects rather than primitives /
