Description

I'm trying to disable the behavior of the click outside dynamically by changing the isActive property of the config object but the behavior still the same.

I know I can use the middleware to handle this (check line 36) but I don't know if the config of click outside expects to be dynamically.

Research direction
The issue is that the `isActive` property in the config object is not being observed when changed dynamically. The fix likely involves adding a watcher or recomputing the directive's behavior when `isActive` changes. Check the source file `src/directive.js` for how the config is bound and if there's a mechanism to react to changes. The CodeSandbox linked in the issue (https://codesandbox.io/s/v click outside e4vin) demonstrates the problem.
