Angular: [(ngModel)] can't bind to array elements (foo[0])

Change

<input type="text" [(ngModel)]="values[0]"> => {{values}}

to

<input type="text" [(ngModel)]="values[0]"> => {{values[0]}}

Looks like Angular 2 won't bind to an array in its interpolation, just elements within the array. The DOM updates only when bound properties change. My guess is that putting a plain array {{values}} in the template doesn't trigger change detection. Imagine an array with thousands of objects. Changing any one of those objects could trigger change detection which would be bad for performance.

Wooooppppps, you are totally right @pe8ter, thank you! I've jumped to (wrong) conclussions. Thnx again.
