Let me send you another post the intention of documenting this issue for people from the future. The solution I'm going with for now is: substituting "???" for lf.object_name+"[service_ids][]". It may not be too pretty, but it works (don't forget setting :service_ids in attr_accessible and accept_nested_attributes_for :services).
