Of course when I began to work on this I tried to use description-field-name
but was unable to access it and discovered it was
useless in the autocomplete context. BTW using jQuery for this should be far
easier as the
http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-autocomplete/ is now part of
jQuery.ui...

Actually I'm really tired because it seems there is the same problem with
jQuery...Anyway, later...

Log:
Introduces a very simple mean to set a dependent Id field when using a Name
field as a lookup (the fields must have the same
prefix, eg: partyName, partyId).
It uses the description (Id) shown with the Name. Hence the Lookup screen must
be set in order to show a description in the
autocomplete part.
It seems this is not always easy notably when you need to show at least 2 parts
for the Name (eg Person).
At least it easy to set and it works well for simples case for now (eg
PartyGroup)
I did not find another way since Ajax.Autocompleter can't update another field.
The alternative would be navigation to the next hidden field, at least it would
avoid the mandatory Id/Name pair.
But it's more difficult to demonstrate in Example component
