What you describe wanting sounds to me much like the looking-glass icon on an admin change page where the ForeignKey field has been included in raw_id_fields. I have never looked into how it is implemented, but since it seems to closely match what you are trying to do, I suggest you take a look at it and see if it does match what you are looking to do. If so, then delving into its implementation may answer some of your quesitons.
