I'm not sure how to do this:
I have an ItemRenderer that has a textbox and a "look-up" button to
open a modal TitleWindow for a full search.
This will do remote calls to get data, where the user selects what
they want (checkboxes) and the chosen "loginName" fields appended to
itemRenderers text box.
the thing that's doing my head in is the best way to get a reference
back to the parent to _append_ the selections
any suggestions?
