I think she wants to add to the dropdown list, but then on submission,
if it's a new item, it should also get entered into the database so that
it's in the dropdown list from then on.

do you want to add items to an existing dropdown list, or create a whole
new dropdown list.

If you want to just add items to the dropdownlist, then that's easy.
Popup a new window, a bit of JS to populate the list on the calling page
with new items, and then insert into the database.
I have just done this for someone else on my cfdeveloper forums, here is
the thread.

How about one single field for the authors with a button that adds the
value to a multi select. Then when you are adding the form values to the
database, you just loop over the value of the multi select
