Is it possible to duplicate a proxy field, or just use the same field twice on the form? I have multiple tabs, and depending on different scenarios, sometimes i want the user to be able to choose a related field under one tab, and sometimes under another. It's purely a convenience, so that the person can choose from where they happen to be modifying information at that time. Is this possible?

You should be able to place a reference proxy on the form in multiple spots yes. Any field that is already on your form that can be placed again will be highlighted in blue in the list and grayed out if you cannot select it, while on the form builder elements tab.

It might depend on the exact type of field but I just tested it in my case on multiple forms and it worked fine for me. Whatever you pick in one instance of the field will be populated in all the others on the form as well. One was a user field proxy another was just a text reference, both were able to be placed on the form in multiple spots.
