Problem with making new Editor

There is another problem (lack of know-how), with my new AuthFilter.
(if it is the right way to make a new AuthFilter)

When associating a list of filters or at least one at least one filter
with an entry in the field of the request, I would like to have a link
to that filter in the Editor for that filter.

I thought of something like:
( field is something made by request.defineField() earlier and 
  fieldentry is the value of that field )
 +--------------+    
 | fieldentry 1 |   link 1 to filter('s class)
 +--------------+   --------------------------
 +--------------+    
 | fieldentry 2 |   link 2 to filter('s class)
 +--------------+   --------------------------
 +--------------+    
 | fieldentry 3 |   link 3 to filter('s class)
 +--------------+   --------------------------

If I make the number of possible fieldentries constant for a specific
filter (StringAttribute that is not EDITABLE) I thought this should
be possible, but yet I don't even know how to make 
ResourceEditorFactory return my FancyFilterEditor when it should do so.
(after that I have to think about how I can make something like an 
 AssociatedFilterAttribute or a HashtableAttribute)
So is this the right way to register my new Editor:

public class FancyFilter {
    static {
	...
	FormEditorFactory.registerEditor("FancyFilter",
  				         "FancyFilterEditor");
    }
    ...
}

Is this enough to make jigsaw call my editor when _FancyFilter_-link
is called in the Resource where I've pluged FancyFilter.
BTW: Will there be more information on this matter supplied with the
     next release ?

After all I want to thank you, Anselm, for patience with novice.
