Description David Vancouvering 2008-12-17 23:42:08 UTC
It would be nice, in data entry, if a column is a foreign key, then as the user types you show a drop-down of possible
values (like what you see with code completion).  When a certain foreign key is selected, the rest of the rows for the
table are shown, and the user can move up and down and pick the correct key.  This would be super-cool, and would also
prevent unhelpful failures because the foreign key value is invalid.
