[silva-dev] object lookup in code sources

[Andy Altepeter]

This is really cool, and I've very glad someone put this togethor...I was 
thinking the same thing but didn't know how to accomplish it.  However, I 
still run into the same issue that I described before.  When 'adding' it 
works, but when selecting an existing it does not.

Odd, it seems to be a problem with Firefox 1.0.x (both .4 and .7).  It works 
in IE6, and firefox 1.5.  I guess I'm leaving the suse 9.2 rpms behind...

Thanks again for the suggestion on the formulator field!
