Masi suggested in a different topic [1] to add a feature that enables 
the usage of a) custom non-persited objects for properties and b) allows 
own object factories to fill properties. A custom object factory could 
in your case fetch the items from outside the storagePid. So maybe 
that's a idea/solution for your problem?
The only difficulty with this I see in persistence. The factory then 
also has to take care of persisting a changed property - and that could 
get tricky I think.

[1] non-db based value objects and embedded values - how to?
