Lookup columns are fully usable in forms too. It is just that Autofield widget 
does not yet offer "combo box/lookup" data type yet, so you just have to 
insert a combo box widget by hand and assign data source to it (i.e. assign 
field that is visible on tabular view as combo box). Then the form's combo box 
will be filled with data according to field's properties set up in the Table 
Designer.

For example, please look at SimpleDatabase.kexi, which is provided for 
distributors to ship with Kexi. This example contains "ownership" table with 
lookup fields and "ownership" form with combo boxes.
If you cannot find the file in your distro, the same can be grabbed from
