The injected `jsonforms` object is not meant to be modified directly.
Instead it should be modified via the provided `dispatch` and by changing the props of the `json-forms` component.

### Testing with Jest / Vitest

When testing custom renderers with Jest or Vitest using CJS transforms, `vue` must be imported **before** `@jsonforms/vue` in your renderer files.
This is due to the CJS bundle eagerly evaluating Vue component definitions at `require()` time, which can cause issues when Jest's module resolution processes imports sequentially.

```ts
// Correct - import vue before @jsonforms/vue
import { defineComponent } from 'vue';
import { rendererProps, useJsonFormsControl } from '@jsonforms/vue';
```

```ts
// May cause errors in tests:
// "Property 'controlWrapper' was accessed during render but is not defined on instance"
import { rendererProps, useJsonFormsControl } from '@jsonforms/vue';
import { defineComponent } from 'vue';
```

This only affects test environments using CJS module transforms.
Browser builds using Webpack, Vite, or other ESM-aware bundlers are not affected.
