Node Reference Set Trail Formatter

Node Reference Set Trail Formatter is a simple module that adds a new formatter to the node reference field. This formatter does not display anything, but instead alters the active trail of a menu.

The formatter can be configured to act any any menu on the site. And will set the active trail of that menu to the node referenced in the node reference. Also the breadcrumbs can be alter so that the current pages breadcrumbs are an extension of the referenced node.

The main use case is so one could set a Parent node, for the current page, and then this page will act like a child of it in the menu and the breadcrumbs without having to be in the menu.
