Yes, normally you'd use a form, select and submit button instead of a
create-button if you actually wanted the create-button to reference a
select. However, as you noted, you cannot nest one form inside each
other. However, you can use "hjq-formlet" from hobo-jquery inside a
form. hjq-formlet only works with AJAX, but since that's what you want...
