Updating PolymerTemplate model from separate thread doesn't reflect on boun

Is it possible to update PolymerTemplate models from a separate thread and have its bound property properly update in the client?

Server:

		Timer timer = new Timer();
		timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(new TimerTask() {
			int x = 0;
			@Override
			public void run() {
				m_myUI.access(() -> {
					getModel().setGreeting(String.valueOf(x));
					x++;
					System.out.println(x);
				});
			}
		}, 0, 1000);

Client:

    static get template() {
		return html `<h1>[[greeting]
]</h1>`;
    }

What’s the proper way to do this? I get the first value that the timer sets and that’s it.

I was able to accomplish what I needed to by setting the timer on the client side and having it call a bound server-side method.
