I think I'll be writing my own form_widget_class anyhow, but I thought
this was a bit odd. Ultimately, like so many others, I'm shooting for
some good CRUD functionality. A bit off topic, for foreign key
fields,
I think it would be neat to have a select list to choose the foreign
key from.
Remember that the list can get quite large, and large lists take time
to load (and are poor from a usability pov. )
The ideal will be to display a list if there are less than n items
where n could be 10-20 by default (and configurable)
If there are more items it should be a read only field with a
'browse' button that displays a grid/table with
paging facilities where the user could select the record from.

ps. it doesn't work like that in CatWalk neither but it will at some
point =)
