Related title should link back to original title #306

What isn’t working as expected on the website?

When two titles are related, it is currently one-way. If I relate title A to title B by putting the ID number of title B into the related titles field in the title A record, then title B is linked on the title A record but title A is not linked on the title B record. We would like this to work the way the related firms do: when I relate firm A to firm B, both records show that, not just the original record where I originally input the relation. (Below step-by-step process might be clearer than this explanation!)

Additional information

I know we discussed wanting all related titles on an entry to be related to each other, and you said it's not possible - we can live with that! We do, however, need individual titles related to each other to link back to the original title where the data was input, the way our related firms currently do.
