Currently we have 'label' and 'rendered entity' formatters,
can we have formatter:fields which can have a sub-widget: "as table headers" much like measured value fields(MVF) for multi value fields(field collection).
this can enhance the usability of entity reference

first iteration of entityreference_field formatter-1972382-2.patch3.17 KB

I needed something along these lines for my own site and so here is a patch of the very rough start that I have working for my own site.

This patch is very rough and needs work, but it works for my own sight where the field I want to pull a value from only allows a single value.

Work that still needs to be done:
- handle fields with multiple values
- "correctly" reference the field data structure of the referenced entity
