XEditableUpdateForm

The X-Editable mechanism works by sending events to the view that indicate the user’s desire to open a field for editing, and their intent to save a new value to the active record.

The ajax request.POST['name'] data field name that tells us which of the model fields should be targetted by this form. An appropriate formfield is looked up for that model field, and the request.POST['value'] data will be inserted as the field’s value.
