If you are doing this in a process table, in the places where that bothers 
people I just do a regular, non-browse lookup in processing first before 
the browse lookup, and if it fails, I branch to appropriate section or "end"
instead of displaying the box and "No Records Exists..." message.

I realize this is a lot of work if you are trying to override built-in <F6>
browses that are not in processing, but putting it in processing has other
advantages too.

Of course if you want to pony up a few grand, I'm sure it could be a new 
PF-variable in 5.8.4 by friday...
