sys_popup behaviors

The reference field popup form behaves differently depending on how you set up the sys_pop up form view.

none (default)	By default, if a sys_popup view is not defined, the reference field popup form will display the default view of the table.
sys_popup	If you have defined a sys_popup, the reference field popup form will display the fields configured in sys_popup.
sys_popup,[view name]	If you have defined a sys_popup,[view name] and viewing a form view called [view name], the reference field popup form will display the fields configured in sys_popup,[view name] (e.g. sys_popup,ess). If the sys_popup,[view name] does not exist and viewing a form view called [view name], then the default sys_popup view will be displayed. (NOTE: This particular behavior broke in Madrid and is fixed in Madrid Patch 5 according to the known error article.)
