 Description   

Currently when using reference to define a control in a dialog, the resulting NodeData will be stored with the name of referenced control, instead of with the name of the actual control in the dialog. This make it impossible to use same reference twice in one dialog and also produces sometimes surprising results.
The typical use of 2x same control reference, but with different name is adaptation of I18ContentSupport explained at http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/WIKI/Introduction+to+I18nContentSupport

Given the thousands of other issues we have open that are more highly requested, we won't be able to address this issue in the foreseeable future. Instead we will focus on issues with a higher impact, and more votes.
Thanks for taking the time to raise this issue. As you are no doubt aware this issue has been on our backlog for some time now with very little movement.
I'm going to close this to set expectations so the issue doesn't stay open for years with few updates. If the issue is still relevant please feel free to reopen it or create a new issue.
