On this point, I'd like to draw attention to my own set of class-based views
which provide formsets functionality, mimicking the APIs of the existing
CBVs as closely as possible. The ultimate goal was to attempt to reimplement
some of Django's admin as a proof-of-concept. It doesn't support any
higher-level functionality like fieldsets, filtering and sorting, and
there's an issue with pagination (see this ticket:
https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16432), but it's fairly
feature-complete and could be a good starting point.
