Nested inlines in the Django admin?

Question

Alright, I have a fairly simple design.

class Update(models.Model):
    pub_date = models.DateField()
    title = models.CharField(max_length=512)

class Pos

I ran into a similar issue to this. My approach was to make an UpdateAdmin that held inlines for both Media and Post... it basically just makes it so you have a list of all of the media entries followed by all of the posts in an update.

class MediaInline(admin.StackedInline):
        model = Media

class PostInline(admin.StackedInline):
        model = Post

class PostAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
        inlines = [MediaInline,]

class UpdateAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
        inlines = [MediaInline,PostInline]

It isn't an ideal solution but it works for a quick and dirty work around.
