ajax functionality in search fields

Hi,
What is the right way to make values from a lookup table searchable and get the ajax dropdown showing available values?
In order to have search functionality against a looked up value we have to modify the query and retrieved the decoded value. But the ajax dropdown doesn't work against the decoded field.
Ajax shows a dropdown with lookup id on fields that are referring to a parent table. That isn't very user-friendly to me. Can this be fixed and show the value instead?

I tried to solve this, but without success. It keeps showing either the ID (although we have a lookup active on that field) or the decoded value (needed to perform search). I am actually wondering how come the ajax functionality does not work even on the decoded field, which is after all a result of the main query.

We'll add this option in one of the future updates. No workaround is available for now.
