Is it at all possible to create a link to view another content item in the Umbraco backoffice?
I've implemented a datatype that manages some content (bi-directional) relations - each living quite far apart in the data layer. It would be particularly handy to the client if they could skim over the details of that related node. (They don't have to be able to edit it, or much at all...)
Is there an existing call I could make to show another content item (tabs & all) in an overlay, or would I have to look at plugging in FancyBox, and calling the correct URL?
I think a lightbox would do the trick. Once you have the ID of the node, you can just load the edit page in an iframe in the lightbox, the url is easy to build: /umbraco/editContent.aspx?id=[your ID].

I'm not aware of anything existing at the moment.
