I need to develop a large number of database maintenance pages with create/read/update/delete functionality (e.g. users, items, regions, etc.). Repeater widgets and actions provide an easy way to display multiple rows and edit them in place. However, it seems like the only simple way to update a database is to delete every row and then re-insert the contents of the repeater. This unfortunately doesn't scale with large results sets. Is there a better way? Thanks in advance.
the issue has been reported, and a redesign of repeater-binding is 'in progress'
for discussions see: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=108059916300004&r=1&w=2
and partly (near the end of the thread:) http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=107903640800002&r=1&w=2
in the mean time the way out is creating a custom-binding (another recent addition, you will need cvs-head for this)
see docs over at:

if you have time to spare: we welcome your ideas/samples/use cases into the discussion

Fyi, I'm planning to use hibernate from flow for serialization (thanks Hugo for the samples!).
