Offhand it sounds like you would have to call cleanup_olc() to erase the
current working item, and then call setup_existing_xxx() to place the new
number in the editor.
Not too hard if you do not allow them to create new objects, you just
increment the real number. Creating new items isn't that bad though, look
up the virtual number, increment by one and call setup_new_xxx() if they
want to create the new one.
Couldd be ripe with memory leaks though, be careful.
