Referencing a base table field in a table extension field.

I am looking for suggestions on how to best accomplish this requirement for an extension to the G//L Account table. 
I need to add a field that is a lookup to G//L accounts.  In other words, I need to create a reference to another G//L Account from a G//L Account.  The lookup cannot be self-referencing and the list of account to select from can be further limited based on a Boolean field that was already added in the same table extension.
