We have found the need to add ids to the autocomplete widget. That way we
know which database row the user selected, instead of trying to match a
string.
Sadly, this breaks backwards compatibility when you first set up the form
(the value dictionary has to change) and when you get data back from the
form, other than that, the JSON search method can stay the same. All this
patch does is add a second hidden field and change the name of the text
field.
We ended up converting the AutoCompleteField into a CompoundWidget to be
able to do this properly.
