[openstack-dev] [horizon] Forms & Tables in workflows

Workflows are composed of actions, which are essentially extensions of Django's form class. Currently there is no "easy" way to drop a table into a workflow, though the pieces are all there. You woul need to construct the table in the view and pass it into the template context, then customize the template for that bit of the workflow to render the table in addition to the regular form.

By way of a shorter answer, there are plans to rework the UX of things which follow the form + table interface paradigm (because it honestly doesn't work very well). There are some preliminary blueprints related to this, and there will be more discussion at the summit.
