[Interest] Binding based on typeof doesn't work any more

[Pierre-Yves Siret]

Can't you do the load after the setContextProperty?
That is what is usually done.

Your problem is a usecase for the suggestion I did there :
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-77926
The code would then become :

Controller?.successfulSteps ?? ""
