As for your issue, I did start to answer it, but never completed an answer. I cannot help you with a javascript approach, but I certainly have felt your pain with needing to protect the super valuable Copy Master Detail and avoiding the dreaded red "looping relationship error".
My solution in other apps was to implement what I can my quick select method. I make a formula URL button which launches off the record and records the [Record ID#] in a User Focus table where the Key field is the user. Then the user lands on a report to select which choice they want. The report can be anything we like, so it can be filtered like the CDD would have been filtered. The user clicks the choice and is landed back on the record. We do have to ensure that the record we are creating has been saved so that the User Focus record knows when record to edit.
Let me know if you feel that approach can work for you and we can get on a GTM call and work though this.

Good to know, I'd still prefer just the click, click all while on the parent record if possible and will research that method first. Thanks for the input.
