[oXygen-user] Enhancement Request: Make keyref dialog wider

Hi Eliot,

This small improvement will probably be available in Oxygen 13.1 in a 
month or so.
Oxygen 13.1 will also contain a button in the "Insert Topic Reference" 
dialog allowing for easily selecting keyrefs as you suggested in a 
previous email.

By the way, from your experience, are there usually many keys defined on 
a DITA Map? Can there be hundreds of keys defined for example? Would a 
"quick find" search field help in the same dialog if it would be available?

Regards,
Radu
