Formatted Managed Metadata Column Shows Up Blank

I've created a managed metadata column in a SharePoint list and applied custom JSON formatting. The column displays as expected in the list view, but shows up blank (or as a dash) in the Properties panel and Details window. The column is visible and displays unformatted on the Edit All window however.
All other custom formatted columns in the list (other than managed metadata columns) display correctly in the list view, Properties panel, and Details window.

I've tested with single and multiple value managed metadata columns. I've used very simple JSON with no success. Using @currentField.displayValue doesn't work either (displays correctly in the list view however). Test JSON below:

{
"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "div",
"txtContent": "@currentField"
}

I've tested in Chrome and Edge on Windows 10 with the same results. Is this a known issue?

    @DB365-3161

    Per my test, I can reproduce the issue in my end. Managed metadata column with JSON formatting does not display properly in Properties panel and Details panel.

    I suggest you submit the feedback through this official feedback platform to improve this function.
