Lookup field not rendered using Display Template after selection changes

Hello -

With the fix in 6.8.8 for https://community.skuid.com/t/reference-field-selected-from-lookup-popup-not-rendering…, the first part of this (picking from search lookup) has been addressed (using render() instead of val(field.name)).

Any chance a similar solution for the 2nd part of this one (picking from auto-complete) can be implemented?  Currently, the behavior is inconsistent depending on which “selection” method the user uses.

Thanks!
