Visual Editor does not take in parent configuration for compound fields

    Description

      In a case where

      • a Gallery Picker is defined in a compound (say ImageCompound)
      • there's a nodetypes restriction one level up (document or compound) in the field's cluster.options node (see here)
      • the image compound has frontend:properties=nodetypes.

      Then in Content Perspective, the nodetypes restriction works, configuration is propagated down.
      But in Visual Editor, this does not work, configuration is not propagated down.

      Use case
      The use case is that the ImageCompound is reused in many document/compound types and its configuration (doc type picker restriction) must be different per type.
