/* Guid editor */
When the Guid property has a FilterQuery datamember (which should contain the guid of a query), it will become editable through this query. Note that this FilterQuery guid will not actually be visible in the client. All this should be setup in the backend, the client has no control over this.
When clicking an editable Guid property, you will see a dialog with the up to 3 following extra buttons added (see image):
;View Object
:This button will be enabled when there is a valid guid assigned to the property. Clicking this button will immediately navigate to the referenced object.
;Edit Property
:If the property has a valid FilterQuery assigned to it, clicking this button will launch that query. If no FilterQuery is assigned, this button will be invisible.
;Clear Property Value
:If the property has a guid assigned, the user can press this button to reset the value back to empty.
 
Additionally, if a valid FilterQuery is assigned, the user will see the results of that query ''inline'', if the query delivers 200 results or fewer. The user can select an item from this horizontally scrollable list, and press "OK" to assign the UID of the selected object to the Guid property. This is useful for cases where the user does not want to jump into the full query to be able to select an object.
Once the user has launched the query, they can click any of the displayed items. When clicking one of them, it will immediately be set as the reference in the original Guid property. To cancel selecting an item (and stop editing the property), simply navigate to any other page (by pressing back, using navigation bar, etc).
