I figured out I can override the default generators methods (createComponent and generate) and then make modifications in the generate method to use my own renderer. Problem is I don't have a clue what generator I have to override. If someone knows which generator is called for the selection of related documents, I'll appreciate it if you would share this.
It is the generator that renders the docs list as seen in the image below and has a select function while in edit properties mode.

Have a look at this page: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Forms#association.ftl, pay special attention to the showTargetLink property.

You just need to configure it for share

Hi,

You need to create an inbound rule that triggers that script.

The script should be placed in Data Dictionary/Scripts, and set the rule manually in the folder.
