Other places where backlinks were obtained by walking the DB are:
  EditPlace (Place editor, display_references)
  ImageSelect (Media editor, GlobalMediaProperties.display_refs).

And we should probably do the same for the EventEditor: a tab with
all the Person/Family objects linking to this event. The Witness
tab will be gone, and this References tab should replace it. Then
finding a witness is a matter of sorting by the Role column.
