NodeRelation instead of ObjectRelation

Hi there :)

I want to make relations between objects with their node ids.
For instance, I need to make a relation between a product, and its similar products (manually).
All my products are listed in a "Products" folder, those products may be multi published anywhere in other sections.

I tought I'd use the common objectrelationlist, but when retriving the list, the node I get is the main_node, ie. not the node I made a relation with.

So I tried to modify the relation action, as I think this could be the trick.

This is my content.ini :

[ObjectRelationDataTypeSettings]
ClassAttributeStartNode[]=562;test

And my browse.ini :

[test]
StartNode=content
SelectionType=multiple
ReturnType=NodeID

But it's not working anymore, my relation is always empty as I get the following error :

Undefined post variable: SelectedObjectIDArray

If I set ReturnType=ObjectID, the common behavior of objectrelationlist is working fine again.
Can anyone tell me how I could achieve this "node relation" ?
Any clue would be greatly appreciated :)

Many thanks in advance !
