i think this "is" too complicate. Anyway a reference to another field is 
nothing very special and could be useful.
There is still a way with TS to write a field into REGISTER and read it 
anywhere else, but there could also be a magic function like
tx_templavoila_pi1.parentRec.find.[field_name]
For sections we would have an array, for normal fields we would have the 
reference.
