Structure for properties of type Reference

For properties of type reference, if available, BOLD face is used.

No Border is used around reference properties.

Reference properties are looking like headers to group other simple (or other reference) properties.

MB column in Code Section is filled with the identifier of the block that is referenced.

Looping properties treatment

When one property is valuated and it is found in the set of its part-of ancestors then second occurrence of the property will be marked in RED and the sub-tree below will not be displayed anymore.
