Hi Jeff, 

Sorry for the delay, and thanks for the suggestion.

If you create a foreign key field in the database editor, when you edit that in the editor menus, it will use a select2 with type ahead-searching and ajax lookups.  We have plans to switch the other list fields to use that format in future.

Is there a specific type of field you're trying to build?

The pillbox list is the field I was thinking of for the datalist. I build the select list from another table, but can’t add a new value without stopping my edit, going to the other table, adding the record, then return to my original record. 

I am using a lookup table that has a table_field, lookup_value and name used similar to the uploadš table.
