This patch allows to open a popup to edit the selected object of either the left or right select input of a filter_horizontal or filter_vertical field, when pressing the "Insert" key.

Being a noob with general client-side issue, it's served as a patch that suits my needs. Maybe it's possible to do it cleaner by overloading the javascript methods, or get rid of the jquery dependency in order to integrate it into django trunk ... Any contribution is welcome!

Requires jquery.
