How can I use renderChunk to render an ID into a title in MIGX?

I tried adding "renderer":"this.renderChunk","renderoptions":"[{\"name\":\"renderTitle\"}]" to the Grid columns but it didn't work. I also tried creating the entire grid through the MIGX CMP and then specifying the configuration ID in MIGX and that really didn't work. I haven't been able to find any documentation anywhere on using the CMP, only through raw JSON in the TV so I guess it is not yet supported?

Any thoughts on this? I'd think it should be easy to render an ID into a title in the manager but MIGX is a complex and powerful beast with incomplete documentation.

I know of two methods you can use:
1. Link via schema if you have custom tables:

2. A custom renderer via a chunk and embedded snippet (sounds like you were almost there) - follow bruno's instructions here:
