User Picker custom field to use Assignee List

Question

I would like to create a customer field (Order Picker) that uses the same list as the Assignee list (in my company, all registered JIRA users).   We are using this as a way to define project teams for potential projects.

How can i associate the Order Picker with the Global list used by the 'Assignee' dropdown?
