Allow type ahead on text fields

While it is possible to use pick lists in the NoteUIWorkspace, the ability to type ahead in specified text fields would give a more fluid and contemporary UI experience.

I should be able to specify the lookup view and number of characters typed before the search starts.

    Using the dialog list is one option, but it is not as good as the type ahead and search you get with a "Authors" or "Readers" field.

    Also it makes an application look old.

    The "Authors" and "Readers" fields are using the Domino Directory to retrieve data, why can't us developers do the same against our own databases and views?

    Just use the field type "dialog list" with "use formula for choices" option and formula like this:
    @Unique(@DbColumn("":"NoCache";"";"(Lookup)";1))
