That is definitely a very interesting and useful example, appreciate you posting it. I just took a quick look at the source for class ModelAdmin and it seems to me that the get_changelist_formset() and get_changelist_form() methods do not have the obj argument, so I don't see how to do the same thing in the changelist. This is one of the things I struggled with, and why I had to extract the id field out of the form and send it back with my ajax request. Am interested in if you see a workaround for that - I would definitely prefer to not be using ajax calls.
