I built this module to be very flexible in solving issues with entity referencing (node reference, entity reference, term reference). It uses the nice EntityFieldQuery to do it. This could be merged or kept as separate module, I'd like to discuss which is the best option:

Just bumping this, I answered windmaomao on the sandbox issue queue. This still needs quite some work, but I think it should be merged at some point.

I've committed a working version that's pretty simple at this point.

We still needs tests, and then can open up followup issues for making things optional. Plus, adding property support.

Calling this fixed.

Thank you Franz!

For the record, I made the entity type required. It's not technically required to use EntityFieldQuery, but it is in D8, so I think that will help in the long run.
