Not quite sure how the name-one-local fits into the problem with
select-many pulling all 32k+ possible relations from the DB. As I
understand it, it just don't present a dropdown selector. But does the
same as select-one when it comes to interaction with the server. And
I'd have the same issue as I had before, with not being able to neatly
put it into the form as a replacement for select-many.

But as it turns out I finally got my own form with a name-one working
for adding relations on the show page. After fighting a bit to
understand why it wasn't doing what I expected it to - which is always
the major issue with these sorts of frameworks: Figuring out why
nothing happens.
