Hi Tim Wouldn't be the 'new inlines' [1] of GSoC admin improvements a nice approach? The height is fixed, no waste of space... And no need to have blank fieldsets for new objects (the 'extra' inline option).
But anyway sometimes Stacked and Tabular just don't fit, it's nice to have another way to show related objects.
