As GUI components for DB entities are typically bi-directional (DB stuff
is displayed to the user, and changes are written back to the DB), such
a generic field does not really make much sense.
Instead of an "intelligent" component, you are perhaps better of with
some static HTML display. For example, in a standard app, you could
simply do
(<pre> NIL
(show *ID) )
and perhaps use your custom 'show' instead of the build-in one.
