Description
Let me describe the situation: In the current admin you can specify max_num and extra for inlines. Before r12297 this meant that you would get the current data from the database + extra
as long as it stays below max_num
. If you were still below max_num
you had to save the page to get extra
new fields (this could be repeated until you reached the limit). This behaviour is currently implemented with the js too; but I think (as js is a usability enchancement) you should be able to add as many rows until you reach max_num
not TOTAL-FORMS (which is rows+extra
while <= max_num). To get this working I guess we would need to pass max_num to the js so it can decide when to stop.
