Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Inconsistent and sometimes broken behaviour with sub and extra commands in the controller configuration when added, deleting or changing their properties.

In my experience:

Removing extra and and sub commands does not update the UI at all until the UI is seemingly completely refreshed. So removing a sub command will appear to have no effect, until you move to another part of the UI or close the configuration UI and open it again when starting from the normal desktop client.

For example, setting the left Joystick to D-pad directions, adding a sub command for Joystick/D-pad up, then trying trying to change the Joystick up binding, will cause the binding to seemingly not change at all. Removing the sub or extra commands will also not appear to work.

Clicking the cog icon next to left Joystick Behaviour then clicking back will cause the UI to update.

Changing the properties of extra commands e.g. changing from regular press to long press does not appear to stick regardless. Clicking the cog will always show regular press, even when you refresh or restart the UI.

Properties of sub commands in particular also cannot be changed at all and I'm not sure why. In fact, I'm not sure what the point or meaningful difference between sub and extra commands really is. They both seem to do the same thing, just one has less configuration options (e.g. no change to press behaviour).

Tested with Steam Controller.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Add a sub or extra command to a binding
2. Try to change it's behaviour through the cog menu - deleting, changing press setting, etc.
3. The UI will not update, until moving to another part of the UI or restarting the configuration UI. Some settings won't stick at all.
