sharepoint lookup field how to programmatically filter to lookup only in current document library

I want the lookup field to be filtered to only display titles from the current document library (meaning the document library that the user is currently in). I cannot specify the document library b/c I don't want to have to define a new lookup column for each new document library...instead I'm hoping to do this as a custom content type that can be used in any document library.

It would ideally be deployed as a feature.

This kind of feature does not exist on SharePoint OTB.

Take look at this thread: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/sharepointadmin/thread/722EE26B-EC33-4618-8041-FAA92E149DE8. It provides some solutions though.
