[Seaside] Self-modifying forms

[Derek Brans]

Lucas,

I have tried using a pluggableList.  The problem comes when the user 
submits the entire form.  The pluggableList is part of the form as well, 
so there would be nested forms.  This doesn't seem to work in my 
browser.  The outer accept button just does nothing.

Maybe I need to use a component which submits on a change but doesn't 
have a form of its own.

Thanks,
Derek
