inlineformset_factory is poorly documented.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/models/#django.forms.models.modelformset_factory
lists modelform_factory and modelformset_factory, but not
inlineformset_factory.
We should probably add something in the line of:
inlineformset_factory(parent_model, model, form=ModelForm,
formfield_callback=None, formset=BaseInlineFormSet, fk_name=None, extra=3,
can_delete=True, can_order=False, max_num=None, fields=None, exclude=None)
Note that inlineformset_factory uses modelformset_factory() and marks
can_delete=True, extra=3. In addition, it uses BaseInlineFormSet by
default.
If your model has more than one ForeignKey to the parent_model, you must
specify a fk_name.
