Well, I'm not worried about how we give the user the ability to do this, but I
do think that a pup won't be sufficient in this case. Why? Well, I want to:
go to reference / go back
change the reference type easily (Pretty ref, Page ref etc)
if( !LaTeX ) edit the name: this last one definitely needs a dialog.
Anyway, my time isn't wasted because the big insetref dialog is nearly finished.
