O2Ms nested in O2M form can not be used if the O2M form object has no mandatory attribute

[Xavier (Open ERP)]

1. Install a database with base_contact

2. Go to Sales > Address Book > Customers and create a new customer

3. Set a customer name and save (via Save and Edit)

At this point, the contacts o2m not editable (and neither should the Address o2m be: the background is that of non-editable and there is a readonly field attribute set, but it's still editable)

4. Click [New] next to address

5. Click [New] next to contacts

Expected:
Should create a new line in Contacts so it's possible to create a contact for the address

Observed:
Reloads the form over and over and over

Note that if you enter anything in a field of address (even though it's not required) then it will work.

The problem is that the address is not created because all its fields are empty (as per addons/openerp/utils/utils.py line 70), and so the contacts o2m tries to create its line even though there is no parent (because the address was not created).

Of course the fix was probably included to stop creating e.g. empty addresses every time you created a customer in the first place...

It has been fixed in lp:~openerp-dev/openobject-client-web/trunk-bug-720173-jra.
