Sometimes the little things make live easier. We had for some time various contextual menus in FileMaker to copy what is in a list. New for 14.1 of MBS Plugin is the option to copy the full field specification (table occurrence and field name together) if you click on a field name in a field picker like in the picture below:

e.g. in the example above it would copy "Assets::Type" instead of just copying the text "Type".  
Please try later in 14.1 pre-release. You may enjoy that our copy content command will recognize checkboxes in a list and provide the value of the checkbox as 0 or 1 or - for mixed state.
