But of course you are right sir! I did not read enough to realize the next 
step in the hierarchy is the <input-many>.

Below is the working solution:

<extend tag="form" for="Dimension">
  <old-form merge>
    <field-list:>
      <items-view:>
        <input-many>
          <field-list:>
            <parent-view:>
              <select-one include-none options="&@dimension.items"/>
            </parent-view:>
          </field-list:>
        </input-many>
      </items-view:>
    </field-list:>
  </old-form>
</extend>

Thanks again!

PS: on a side note, I'm looking for a little more convenient tree-editing 
UI than this simple nested form with the <select-one>s for the belong_to 
association.
