Hello, I got a question based on films-actors sample.

What if one actor could play twice in the one movie? Or 10 times? How can I add an additional field quantity into relations table and make grocery crud take it into consideration? Pic related.

I can offer a solution, but it is a bit complicated.

    1. catch an event on add item and on delete
    2. force to open prompt window to enter quantity value
    3. send an ajax request to server to set up session variable with quantity and actor id
    4. set callback_before_insert and add quantity data to post_array manually

Any thoughts?
