Hello,

I need to be able to easily view and edit large amounts of data. This is in the from of a child model, with each record needing to be set but each may not hold the same value necessarily (think between 5 and 30 child records). Step one in this is making the data viewable in an embedded table in the new/edit form so it takes up less space, with step two allowing in-line editing (AJAX) and batch actions as with [issue 247](https://github.com/gregbell/active_admin/issues/247).

The best way forward for step one would probably be to just render the very same table that's in the index view, but I can't figure out how to. I have a feeling this will screw around with the CSS on the page, but I can fix that when I get there.
