Django admin inline forms

Hi all,

I have 2 models that look something like this:

class Address(models.Model):
    address_row1 = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True, blank=True)
    address_row2 = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True, blank=True)
    postal_code = models.CharField(max_length=30, null=True, blank=True)
    city = models.CharField(max_length=80, null=True, blank=True)
    state = models.ForeignKey(USState, null=True, blank=True)
    country = models.CharField(max_length=2, null=True, blank=True, choices=regional.COUNTRY_CODES)

class Customer(AbstractUser):
    company = models.CharField('company', max_length=100, null=True, blank=True)
    phone = models.CharField('phone', max_length=80, null=True, blank=True)
    cellphone = models.CharField('cell phone', max_length=80, null=True, blank=True)

    newsletter = models.BooleanField('newsletter', default=True)

    billing_address_same_as_shipping = models.BooleanField(default=True)
    shipping_address = models.ForeignKey(Address, null=True, blank=True, related_name="shipping_address")
    billing_address = models.ForeignKey(Address, null=True, blank=True, related_name="billing_address")

So the Customer model has 2 foreignkeys to the Address model. What I would like to do in django admin is have the ability to add address models to the customer model. This is of course the way it is from the beginning, however I don't want a dropdown list to choose the address from, I want to be able to edit the address model inline, and add one inline if it doesn't exist. How would I be able to do that with the admin interface?

I don't want to have to create an Address object and then choose it from the dropdown list. What I want to be able to do is edit the Address object directly in the Customer object if the Address object exists and then be able to add one if it doesn't.

Regards,

Andréas
