The rules may be different here (Denmark), but I'm certain that the PE doesn't need to run back to the panel. Incidentally I just had a conversation about a nearly identical case with my colleague who has 39 years experience. Additionally, I don't see any reason why that would interfere with the operation of the ground fault interrupter.
